    I not really shore where the FXON-24MR really comes from because l think in this part of the world it is either FXON 24MR ES or DS. However l have just checked on eBay and there is a FXON 24MR available. It may be in the US as it is for sale with a $ price tag.

    I don’t think Siemens step 7 micro win software is a free download. You will also need a Siemens step 7 PPI cable to connect between the computer and the P.L.C.

    A GGP is a Mitsubishi dedicated programming terminal. They were used pre Medoc software day’s and were a step up key pad programming device. 
    Like Medoc on a laptop you could monitor complete rungs.

    The PC can transfer to and from both the PLC and the HMI using GX Developer and E Designer respectively. The HMI Can only read and write data to and from the PLC.

    I assume the P.L.C is a Mitsubishi FX2N-48MR the cable would be a Mitsubishi SC09 cable. The software would be Medoc or GX     Developer. It is not a copy past situation the program has to be written via the programming software then transferred to the P.L.C also a replacement battery has to be installed to retain the program.

    The two PLCs have different software and different programming cables. So you cannot take the program from the 300 PLC and put it into the 200 PLC. You require Simatic S7 software and a MPI cable for the 300 PLC. For the 200 PLC you require Micro Win software and a PPI cable. So you upload the program from 300 PLC and rewrite the program with the Micro Win software and download it to the 200 PLC. Not knowing the machinery or the application it may not be as simple as l have suggested however both of these machines must have worked in the past so it must be possible. 

    Good luck

    Hi AmirB

    As l said in my post the cable you have will not work. You require a cable from Mitsubishi SC09 this cable has electronics in it that.   converts the RS232 signal coming from your computer. To RS485/RS422 that your PLC uses when reading and writing to your         computer. As gambit said in his post if you have USB available on your computer you can buy a USB version that would work. But the simple way wold be to get the SC09 cable.

    good luck

    A serial cable will not work you have to use a Mitsubishi SC09 cable. The PLC is not RS232 the SC09 cable converts the RS232 to RS485 or RS422 l don’t remember of hand. You can bye these from EBay but be carful of some of the sites ideally try to get a genuine cable which is an orange coloured one.
