Transfer requirements
• Configured device type identical to type of target device
• Configured device version matches image version on target device
• Connection exists to target device (transfer interface settings)
Direct connection within a bus segment
Connection through routing
• Target device in transfer readiness (transfer mode active)
• Project can be generated without errors
File (*.FWX) is generated
Contains generated configuration data for the target device
• Transfer settings in WinCC flexible match the connection
