Questions about Automation Studio, AS Code, Automation Runtime, mapp Cockpit, OPC UA, licensing, versioning, and related runtime technologies.
Why should people use this category? What is it for?
This category is for questions related to B&R software tools and runtime environments. It includes Automation Studio, Automation Studio Code, Automation Runtime, mapp Cockpit, and communication technologies such as OPC UA Client/Server and OPC UA FX. Licensing, versioning, and deployment topics are also covered.
How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?
Unlike Programming, which focuses on logic and code, or HMI, which deals with visualization, this category targets the configuration, setup, and operation of B&R software platforms and runtime systems. It’s the place for system-level questions that don’t involve direct programming or hardware.
What should topics in this category generally contain?
-
Software version and environment (e.g., AS6.3, AR 6.3)
-
Description of the issue or configuration challenge
-
Steps taken and expected behavior
-
Optional logs, screenshots, or project files
