Has anyone used "Factory IO" using Ignition as an OPC UA server? I made some attempts but without success.

I'm trying to use Ignition as a server to connect omron's NX1P2 PLC via OPC UA with Factory IO.  
I already managed to make the connection of the PLC with Ignition, I even imported the tags and I can see them working in real time normally, but I couldn't find OPC UA Serve in Factory IO.

factory io can only be UA client. and you also need to have the correct version.
