I'm not sure I understand the question. You want to connect your Beckhoff PLC to a Codesys development environment? You need the TwinCAT development environment (version 2 or 3) to do that:

Or do you want a Beckhoff PLC to communicate with a PLC running Codesys? In that case, what PLCs do you have and how are they interconnected?
 
yes i want to connect your Beckhoff PLC to a Codesys development environment. i have installed codesys rte into the beckhoff plc. but whenever i try to start the rte the beckhoff plc restarts.
i am using beckhoff cx2020-0120 and do i need to install TwinCAT development environment into the plc?.

I am totally lost now. A CX2020 should have come with the TwinCAT runtime already installed and properly licensed. Why would someone want to install Codesys runtime on it?
