EasyPLC Machine Simulator OPC Setup With Studio 5000 Using RSLinx

Machine Emulator by EasyPLC was born over 10 years ago & has grown into such great software for learning PLC programming because of its flexibility to work with any PLC manufacturer.

Note: this is not FactoryIO, the software we are using is EasyPLC. A much better alternative than FactoryIo because of the added features & the price.

It even has its own PLC writing software so if you do not have any software at all, this is a full suite of software to learn & emulate machines & PLC logic.

In this video, I show actually how to connect Studio 5000 with RSLinx OPC to the EasyPLC Machine Emulator to get a simple system up & running.
