RS Logix Emulate 500 instance IP and Port

6 posts in this topic

Hi!

I'm using RSLinx Classic, RSLogix Micro English and RSLogix Emulate 500 to emulate a Micrologix 1100 Series B. I'm able to run, program and simulate different input and output with the emulated PLC. Everything works fine.

My problem is that I'm writing a program using the nodePCCC library (https://github.com/plcpeople/nodepccc) and I'm not able to connect to the emulated PLC using the address 127.0.0.1 and the port 44818. I tried  running 'netstat -a' on Power Shell and I found out that the port 44818 is not being used. 

Could someone help me identify what I'm doing wrong?

I don't think you are going to succeed.  The Emulate500 instance is only reachable via RSLinx's OPC support, and not the free version, IIRC.

Sad news :(

Thank you for the answer.

Would that work with the Emulate 5000? The 3rd party program would be able to connect to the emulated PLC?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure.  Possibly in the latest and greatest Emulate5k.  Earlier versions were also limited to RSLinx comms.
