Configuring Analog IO module in ctrlX I/O engineering

Hi, I'm evaluating the setup for using ctrlX suite for interfacing with analog sensors. I am running a ctrlX core virtual instance and, from what I understood, I need to set up I/O module from ctrlX I/O engineering.

I have found the ctrlX I/O XI3xxxxx modules for providing 4 analog inputs, but these are not availble when I select "Add device..." to the EtherCAT master.

 

Am I missing something here? Is this the correct approach?

The Modbus TCP app is not related to the PLC app. So you can have the communication independent of other apps.
