There are two ways to match the versions: 
●  Update the HMI device image if the project was created with the most recent version of 
the configuration software. 
●  Transfer a matching version of the HMI device image if you do not want to adapt the 
project for the HMI device to the most recent version of the configuration software for the 
project. 
 
Note 
Data loss 
All data on the HMI device, such as the project and licenses, will be deleted when you 
update the operating system.

function if the project is active. Then start the operating system update in ProSave or 
WinCC.  
●  Updating the operating system with reset to factory setting 
 
Note 
Data channel
