I have a HMI display at my college with model name 5PP520.0702.00,When i try to configure my device online. The device is not showing on the Automation studio, what should i do?
If you know your target IP address, you can configure a new connection manually. B&R Online Help
If you do not know IP address of PLC, you can try to determine IP address using Wireshark trace
Additional knowledge you can get from problem with online connection or topic unable to find hw online

Sir I tried both of those methods and nothing worked.Using wireshark trace it is not even showing the B&R.
OK, let’s start from the beginning. It is a panel with a CF card. Is the CF card plugged in? What is the status of the panel after power-on? I mean, what can you see on the screen? Is there a running project? If so, do you have a service page with an information overview of the panel, like the IP address used, etc.?
As a sidenote: If AS6.x is used then the PP520 will also not show up as it is no longer supported by AS6.x and therefor AS4.12 must be used

It looks like there is a project running on this, and that project is in Service mode. This means that the IP of the PowerPanel is whatever was configured in the project that’s currently running on it. If you do not know what is on there (and do not care about it), then I recommend installing offline by burning the CompactFlash with Automation Studio. This will ensure that your project and IP settings are what you expect them to be.

Agree with @Marcus. If you would like to run your new project, just create a new empty project with the proper hardware, configure the IP address according to your requirements, and install the new CF. Your current project and AR running on this PP is in service mode (likely because of the supervision of hardware that is no longer connected).
