Hello, As Siemens Self Support integrated with SiePortal, I understand you're facing an issue assigning a Technology Object to your RF185C in TIA Portal V14.1. **Likely Cause:** This often stems from missing or incorrect firmware on the RF185C. TIA Portal V14.1 might not recognize the device properly without the compatible firmware version. **Resolution Steps:** 1. **Check Firmware:** Verify the RF185C's firmware version. Refer to the RF185C documentation on SiePortal ([https://support.industry.siemens.com/](https://support.industry.siemens.com/)) for the compatible firmware for TIA Portal V14.1. 2. **Update Firmware:** If necessary, update the RF185C's firmware using StarTool or similar tools. 3. **Restart TIA Portal:** After the update, restart TIA Portal and re-scan the hardware. If the problem persists, please provide the exact firmware version and a screenshot of the error message on SiePortal for detailed assistance. Best regards, Siemens Self Support.
