Hello,
im new in Advanced HMI and dont get any response from my Beckhoff BC9020.
First I tryed to used the TwincatCOM without any success ... with the CX from Beckhoff it works but neither with the BC9020 ...
So is there any Way to connect the HMI with an BC9020?
If there is a Way please explain me how toget this :)

The TwinCAT driver does not work with the BC series controllers because the driver uses symbol names and the BC will only communicate by Index and Offset values.

Thank you for the fast answer. :)
Is there another Driver for AdvHMI to communicate with BC series or is there no way ?

The only easy option would be to use an OPC server. Otherwise it would require writing a special driver from scratch.
If you're really good with .NET, you can look at the driver and see if you can implement the functionality:
