The solution I discovered was to use FactoryTalk Linx Gateway as an OPC-UA server, and add that server to the Ignition Gateway. It didn’t show any errors or indicate a problem, it just wouldn’t work.
I could establish a connection with RSLinx Classic, but I couldn’t actually get any of the tags to show data. Studio 5000 Logix Designer (formerly known as RSlogix 5000) is used to program the most powerful Allen-Bradley PLCs (technically PACs), including the ControlLogix and CompactLogix controllers. SoftLogix isn’t going to work for me, because I want to use v31 and SoftLogix will not support v31.
Open RSLinx Classic and select Communications>RSWHO. I found some threads that said to use SoftLogix, because then the Logix driver would work, and some threads said they have had some success using RSLinx Classic. When you are finished Studio 5000 Logix Emulate should like this: 6. Of course, I turned to Google and YouTube to find a solution. You can’t just add a device and expect it to work. First of all, Studio5000 Emulate does not allow Ethernet IP communications and Ignition does not have a driver that works with Emulate. You would think that setting this up would be pretty straight forward, spoiler alert, it is not. Install prerequisite software for RSLogix Emulate 5000. You will need TechConnect Account and the product serial number and key to download it. See Considerations when uninstalling RSLogix Emulate 5000 on page 8 for more information. Is RSLogix Emulate 5000 and/or Studio 5000 Logix Emulate free No. If you have a previously installed copy of RSLogix Emulate 5000 on your computer, uninstall it. However, I don’t have a PAC on hand, but I could use the most recent emulator from Rockwell Automation. The process of installing RSLogix Emulate 5000 is as follows: 1. I recently wanted to create an Ignition SCADA to work with Allen Bradley’s ControlLogix Programmable Automation Controller (PAC).
