    Good morning Jimmy,

    Sorry you ran into issues – do you have a ViewStudio license? That is required to make ViewStudio communicate with RSLinx Classic Lite, so if you only had a demo of ViewStudio it wouldn't work (which is one of the reasons I cover connecting to so many actual PLCs, since many will be using the free View Studio demo.)

    As far as The Automation Minute, it's Season 4, Episode 4 which you can access here: https://theautomationblog.com/view-studio-using-rslinx-classic-and-rsemulate/

    PS – I've currently planning a huge expansion to this course and will definitely include a lesson on using the Emulator – if there's anything else you'd like to see included please drop me a direct message!

    Sincerely,

    Shawn Tierney,
    Instructor at The Automation School
