FXGP/WIN software

3 posts in this topic

I recently got a new laptop and am running Windows XP. I am now having problems maintaining communication with my FX2n plc. I have an old version of the FXGP/WIN software (V1.10) and am wondering if there is a newer version available and if upgrading will solve my problems.

Hi Maintpro, What type of cable you are using? I have experienced that kind of problem before when i used my laptop to communicate to the FX2n plc. If you are using the RS485 port using the laptop, it is trully very hard to get the communication but if you are patient, just always press F3 or online comm. I tried to use my desktop and i found no problem. Since laptop is more convenient, i never use now the rs485. I currently use FX2n-232BD!! The problem is not related to your OS, it is in the port that I cant explain to you deeply.
