trying to get Ignition to work in a simple setup for testing.
We have a S7-1517 and I was able to get the Ignition OPC UA server setup and also created a device to have it connect to.
I have enabled PUT/GET and downloaded the hardware configuration as well.
So far so good.
I created a tag to get the connected status and it worked fine.
When I created a memory bit tag mapping it to MX0.7 it doesn't seem to recognize it.
Your syntax appears correct. Could you try MX0.7 with the capital "X" in the opcitempath?
Also, after redownloading the Hardware configuration program for the S7, I would edit/save the Ignition's Device connection to allow it a re-browse of the updated program. Then try it again.
I think I know what was causing the issue no problem from Ignition side, the configuration was right at first.
The problem was that for me run the TIA portal and PLCSIM AdvancedI had to fetch licenses from a server, and to do that I needed to use Cisco AnyConnect which creates a VPN.
While this VPN was active I could not ping the the simulated PLC anymore
Well I solved it disconnecting from the VPN after I got the licenses, a weird work around but it worked.
