Can not find X20BC008T in Hardware catalog

Hi. I am new to automation studio. I am working on X20BC008T. I am using automation studio 4.12.6, automation Runtime J4.93, technology package 1.2.0. Problem is, I can not find X20BC008T in Hardware catalog. Where can i find it?
Thanks in advance

There is no hardware ugrade available yet for the X20BC008T.
At the moment it is only possible to configure the X20BC008T with UaExpert or other OPC UA clients.
See the datasheet V1.31 of the X20BC008T.

After configuration data can be written or read with functions from the AsOpcUac library or with PubSub configurations.

Hi,

i agree with @corne.geerts. The native integration into Automation Studio is yet to come.

For completeness and maybe also interesting for others:

The datasheet (Data sheet X20BC008T | B&R Industrial Automation) contains a dedicated chapter “PubSub configuration example” dealing with configuring the X20BC008T with an OPC UA Client (UaExpert), as well as configuration of PubSub for the PLC in Automation Studio.

More detailed information on configuring PubSub for the PLC in Automation Studio can be found in the help of the OPC UA FX TP, e.g B&R Online Help OPC UA FX (AS6) or B&R Online Help OPC UA FX (AS4)
