i have a DF1 network. I’m assuming i need to set that up as a device at the ignition gateway but i don’t see that as an option. Am i way off track here or are there more drivers i can download? You will have to bear with me guys. I’m new to this. 
All of the driver modules for Ignition are Ethernet drivers. If you want to communicate with devices on a DF1 network you’ll need to go through a gateway or converter of some kind.
Alternatively, you can use Kepware or any other OPC server with the drivers that you need. Ignition talks to any OPC-DA or OPC-UA server.
