Recently, I’ve connected to an ABB controller using their [ABB IRC5 OPC Server](http://www.abb.com/product/ap/seitp327/049ffeb82687791ec12574b9004958cf.aspx). Since it’s an OPC DA server, I had to use the [OPC COM Module](http://www.inductiveautomation.com/products/ignition/modules) of Ignition. I’m not sure if this applies to the controllers you’ve mentioned, but it might be worth a look …
