Posted 14 Feb 2018 I am looking at a conversion from an A series processor to a Q series and the existing A has a number of MELSEC MR-J2S-22KB and MR-J2S-350B servo controllers that appear to be using SSCNET. What do I need to control these with a Q series controller? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 15 Feb 2018 Are you working with a Full Motion CPU or a Positioning Module? If you are using a Motion CPU then you will probably need a Q172/Q173. If your using a Positioning module such as an AD70 / AD75 then you probably need a QD75. Your local Mitsubishi Rep should be able to help you with more information on which exact module you would need. There are also some guides on the Mitsubishi website for A to Q transition. Make sure you register and log in on the website before doing any searches or you won't find any relevant information . https://us.mitsubishielectric.com/fa/en Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 16 Feb 2018 I was just handed this project with little information other than some pictures and a verbal. It looks like the existing Q already has one Q172DEX module installed with one port being used as well as having a Q172DSCPU in the chassis with the Q13UDEHCPU. The primary chassis is full and there is an existing remote IO just below it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
