Hello,
I’m trying to create a project which will be using X20CP3584, however it does not show up in the Hardware Catalog nor can I find a HW Upgrade file. Where would I be able to get the file to add this controller to the Hardware Catalog?
Thanks!
Hi Wes,
Welcome to the Community!
There are two ways to find hardware upgrade files. The first is via the Tools → Upgrades window in Automation Studio:
Note that you must have a non-trial license of Automation Studio to install upgrades this way.
The other way to find upgrades is via the B&R website. A search usually turns up the hardware you’re looking for:
From the product page, you can find the HW upgrade files in the Downloads section:
Note that because there are upgrades listed for only “V3.0” and “V4.0”, you must be using either Automation Studio 3 or Automation Studio 4 to install these files. Once you download the corresponding upgrade, you can install it from the “Local” tab of the Tools → Upgrades window.
The X20CP3584 is no longer supported in Automation Studio version 6. There is a list of all discontinued hardware in the AS Help or Online Help.

Hello Wes,
The X20CP3584 is not supported in AS v6.0. This was part of a long list of hardware discontinuations outlined in the AS v6.0 Help (link below). For your project with the X20CP3584, you will need to leave it in AS v4.12 as the last supported version.
