I don’t think Emulate 5000 supports tag browsing. Lots of threads on here if you put ‘Emulate 5000’ in the search tool. 😉

For the Simatic stuff, [this thread](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/connect-to-plcsim-advanced-3-and-opc-client-connect-for-browsing/31821/2) may point you in the right direction.
