Thanks for all the input, looks like Ignition might be my best bet. I saw in the options cost posting there is a "Modbus RTU" driver addon, I have several Modbus RTU communicating Chillers... Would that be easy to use that driver to pull in all their status info?
Yes, the Modbus driver works great. I was going to go down a convoluted path, to use a wireless HART device with Ethernet/IP comms, and was planning a Logix Processor to act as the go-between, but the vendor brought me the Modbus version as a demo to test. It took all of about two minutes to configure it, and get it talking to Ignition with no issues.
