Has anyone worked with flow computers like ABB TotalFlow/FisherROC/Floboss? I’m wondering if anyone has experience polling the EFM (Electronic Flow Measurement) data then exporting into a .csv or to a database table or if there are any limitations getting this data thru Ignition?  
Thanks in advance

yes, but you will need a opc server that has efm capability. like kepware, universal server, or autosol.

ok, so the Ignition OPC does not support this?

That’s right, we don’t have any EFM drivers.
