Connection with GX Works2

Hi,

On this page, using Gx Works3 to connect to a PLC, but is it possible to connect using Gx Works2 as well?

It is probably possible if it is compatible with the Mitsubishi MELSEC iQ-R or Q/L series, but since we do not have Gx Works2, we are unable to give a definite answer to our customers.

Could you please give us some advice?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

As you mentioned, Emulation Module support PLC series Q, series L and iQ-R.
GX Works 3 is used to program series iQ-R (and others)
GX Works2 is used to program series Q and L (and others).

So if are using a PLC of series Q or L you need to use GX Works2 and you can use Emulation Module connect the PLC.

Hope this help.

@Luciano Cavallero ,

The customer was able to confirm the connection with GX Works2.

The PLC used was Q03UDVCPU, but the "PLC Type Name" for the MC connection below was not displayed.

What do you think is the cause?
