Hi Commonity,

I am trying to transfer to my newly connected 5APC2200.AL18-000 but I keep getting the following error when trying to transfer: ‘Project installation not possible due to a hardware or Automation Runtime mismatch between target and project.’. I am trying to solve this issue, but can’t seem to fix it…

Can anyone help me? I have added a screenshot to this post.

Thanks in advance! 🙂

Regards,  
Milan Oude Nijeweme

Hi Milan,

Which processor is configured in your project’s Physical View? From the lower-right of your screen, you are connected to an APC2200 with processor type AL18. In order to transfer to this target, you must have the same processor configured in your project.

Hi @kovarj,

I haven’t been working on this project since I encountered this problem.

But if I continue the project and find a solution, I will share it in this topic 🙂

Fine, no problem 🙂 I think advice from Marcus is what I should focus on.
