Micrologix 1400 and Ignition 7.8.2

PD is the only data file that doesn’t show up in the OPC Tag browser.

I would like to be able to display PD22:0.KC, Ti, TD etc. on Ignition if possible.

Even if I type the item path in manually, it shows up as Config Error in tag diagnostics.

Anyone know if there’s a way to do this?

Thanks!

Accessing these directly isn’t supported in the driver. You’ll have to copy the values elsewhere to read them.
