I have a program in Connected Components Workbench and I am using the integrated Micro800 Simulator, is there a way to connect the program to Ignition? So that I can do the interface in Designer. ---

Huh. Didn't even notice that CCW **has** a simulator. If possible, it will likely be an OPC client connection, which will likely not work the same as any real Ignition connection. Consider buying one for your lab. ---

Can't confirm if one of these work with CCW, but i've had luck with the following methods for connecting to the RSLogix Emulator: [OPC-DA to RSLinx Classic (Emulated PLC) - General Discussion - Inductive Automation Forum](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/opc-da-to-rslinx-classic-emulated-plc/11667) & [Ignition Tips, Tricks, and Cheats (godboutpcs.com)](https://godboutpcs.com/blog/f/ignition-tips-tricks-and-cheats) ---

While I have not actually tried it yet. The simulator tells you the IP (for connecting in RSlinx) I usually use loopback 127.0.0.1 (you can select the card, and it will show the IP.) either way, I can ping the device. So I'm sure you would be able to add to Ignition via the IP. I'd probably use it with @pturmel s driver. ---

I can confirm it works with @pturmel 's driver. I can add it, read/write successfully, and read the global tags. ---

Just chiming in to confirm that it works with the "new" Inductive-released micro800 module as well, but with similar limitations as the physical controllers with explicit ethernet (LC50). Interesting opportunity for learning settings. ---

The simulator is only available for one model. So you can use that, but can't expand to alternate controllers.
