Niagara - Station Copier - Transfer files failed - config.bog(old) problem

This article described a way to fix an error that can occur when copying a station from a computer to a Supervisor or device, such as the iSMA-B-MAC36NL. It is based on an error of two "config.bog" files in the station.

1. When trying to copy a station from a computer to a Supervisor or device, it may happen that the ‘Transferring station’ tool selects the wrong BOG type file, in this case "config(old).bog".

2. In such case, open the folder where the station is located - by default, it is: C:\nUserName\Niagara4.7 - and check its contents.

3. Delete the config(old).bog file. After deleting it, the next step is to restart the Niagara Workbench and use Station Copier.

4. On the next attempt, the' Transferring station' tool will select the appropriate config.bog file and the whole process will be successful.
