I don't believe you can connect using a virtual port.
If you had 2 physical ports on your PC, you could connect 1 to the other with a null modem, using 1 for VB and 1 for the serial port of the PLC in CX Simulator. This does work.

We have used the following for testing a virtual .net interface.
You may give it a try [should work] with VB.

Hi,

CX-Simulator emulates a FINS node so if you're using Compolet or CX-Server Lite to access PLCs from VB then you can set it up to access just by the node number.
