There have been a number of discussions of this on this forum. I'd start here: > [@Ignition and Rockwell Emulate 5000/RSLinx Classic Gateway](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-and-rockwell-emulate-5000-rslinx-classic-gateway/24264): > > Will Ignition read tags from an Emulate 5000 (v30) controller using RS Classic Gateway 4.1? I’ve read a lot of old threads here and elsewhere and still not sure about the answer. So far, I have a successful connection to the local RSLinx OPC Server with the OPC-DA COM Connection. I can see the Linx OPC Servers and tags if I go to OPC Quick Client in the config menu. But now I’m at a roadblock. Is that as far as this goes with this combination of software? You can find more by putting "Emulate 5000" in the search box. (:
