It is difficult to see why your Ignition driver or address configurations aren't working if we can't see them. Please could you include a screenshot of your NJ Addressing configuration and the FINS driver configuration.

Also be aware that IA's NJ/NX driver does **not** browse the tags in the target PLC. You must export from Sysmac Studio and import into IA's device configuration. If you'd like a better experience with NJ/NX PLCs, you probably want to use my alternate EtherNet/IP Client driver:
