Hi,

the [Runtime Utility Center](https://help.br-automation.com/#/en/4/automationnet%2Fpvitransfer%2Fpvitransfer.html) is not a replacement for Automation Studio.

To transfer a project to a PLC, it must first be compiled (AS).  
The compilation then results in binaries that are saved in the project.

Depending on the Automation Runtime used there, you must then use either the [‘Transfer to target’](https://help.br-automation.com/#/en/4/programming%2Ftransfer.html) or the [‘Project Installation’](https://help.br-automation.com/#/en/4/automationruntime%2Fenhancedtransfer%2Fenhancedtransfer_index.htm).

please have a look into this post:
