Regardless, I would really appreciate any help in trying to fix the problems I'm having.

Support for the Emulator controller is not installed.' I'm not sure if this error occurs because I am unable to properly connect to my Virtual Backplane in RSLinx or is it's a whole separate issue. I immediately get a pop-up window telling me: 'Failed to create project project_name. I match the slot number to the one I set in RSLinx (0 or 2) and press Finish. I also tried creating a new project in Studio5000 under the Logix project type using the Emulate 5570 controller. For whatever reason I am unable to connect to the 00 (or 02) Workstation that it automatically creates in RSWho under that driver (keeps giving me the red 'X' over the picture). The defualt slot number for that driver appears to be 0 (I have also tried slot 2).

make sure that RSLinx Classic is installed and the Virtual Backplane driver is running.' So I opened up RSLinx Classic (v3.81) and went through the tutorials on how to configure the Virtual Blackplane/SoftLogix driver. Just want to preface this and say that all of the software I have is properly licensed and activated, that seems to be the first question many people ask when trying to help troubleshoot Emulate 5000.Īnyway, when trying to open Emulate 5000 I get the error: 'Unable to read Virtual Backplane Status.
