Hello Suraj,

I hope the following meets your expectations:

  1. Software installation
    The IDE / Automation Studio can be downloaded from the B&R homepage:
    Downloads | B&R Industrial Automation

There is a Help inside the Setup and on the B&R homepage:

B&R Online Help

There is a chapter on SW installation.

  1. Hardware(I/O) configuration

There is also a chapter “Getting Started”.
Gettig Started are available for the first Automation Studio project, for HMI, for HW Configuration …

  1. Program development/testing

There is also a chapter "Diagnostics and Service. If simple tests are sufficient then you can work with the diagnostic tool Monitor

  1. Hardware testing.
    If simple tests are sufficient then you can work with the diagnostic tool Monitor.

I can also recommend the B&R training courses for beginners. They also provide training modules for this.

Best regards Stefan
