Using real-time chains with the beta api is somewhat troublesome, I suggest you do this:

df, e = tr.get_data(['.KS200'], ['TR.IndexConstituentRIC', 'TR.IndexConstituentName'])

Yes, It works. The problem is how can I get fields like

'TR.IndexConstituentRIC', 'TR.IndexConstituentName'

is there a dictionary for checking?

fields like [DSPLY_NAME]

I can get this field through F4, type the RIC ,

can you help to tell me how to get ['TR.IndexConstituentRIC', 'TR.IndexConstituentName']?

You need to use Formula Builder wizard in Eikon Excel or Data Item Browser app in Eikon. See the following tutorial on this portal, which talks at length about metadata discovery (how to find field names and parameters).
