We have a customer with some old PLC's and asking us if we can connect and get the data via Saia-S-Bus.  
Have not found alot of info around this topic in the forums or otherwise.

Do anyone have experience with these PLC's and connecting them to ignition via the saia-s-bus?

No experience, but [they do seem to have an OPC server](https://sbc-support.com/en/software/opc-server/) available. It's OPC-DA, thogh, so you'll need to plan accordingly wih the OPC-COM module and possibly the tunneler.

> Hi, While not with screenshots, we do have a Knowledge Base Article that includes a step by step guide for getting an OPC DA connection set up, as well as some basic troubleshooting if you run into any issues: We also have an Article Discussing how to set up the Tunneler Driver once you are able to get that up and running. I'll include it here for easy reference: I hope this helps!
