hello I tried making my own cable from parts and using a diagram I found online. on this site. "simple programming cable for Mitsubishi FX" is the thread name. the first diagram on there, the black one. that's the connections I used. no luck what so ever. I don't know what is going on here. does anyone know the name of the drivers required, it would be a great help if any one would share that information. I would have thought that there was one driver in particular. any help would be great thanks simon

ron s that's the exact same thing I have. please please please could you tell me your setup. I have three drivers that download from that cable serenum.sys ch341 SER or something ch341 dll or dpp or something and it doesn't work! that's the same seller I bought from exactly the same cable. I don't know what im doing wrong I bought a cheap serial 232 to usb converter, an rs232 plug and socket cable and I have to buy the mini 8 pin din plug to put on the rs232 socket to make my own cable. the serial adapter I plugged in came with the same three drivers mentioned above. HEADACHE!!!! thanks for your adding information about the cables!! all the best simon

I did get a message saying that I have the most up to date and correct driver. there is a "yellow cable version 2" driver which I had to move to desktop and then download. this still did not work. I have bought a serial converter (rs232 - usb) from ebay, then I have to get the rs232 female socket and attach it to a mini 8 pin din plug. I hope that works is there a thread that tells what cable people are using, cost, where they bought it. a review thread. that would be good and helpful. ill start. I got a cable from ebay for £10.91 free postage. fast delivery, yellow "version 2" cable. mini 8 pin din one end, usb the other with a yellow box in the middle. two leds, one for tx and the other for rx. came with mini cd loaded with drivers that don't seem to help. I tried a number of things but no luck. this is the first cable I tried. I took the plc to college and tried it there with there Mitsubishi thing. the plc work first time no fuss. college uses a cheap usb to rs 232 serial converter connected to a Mitsubishi grey box with a green led. then a 485 cable (I think) to the 422 plug. apparently very expensive that Mitsubishi box.

don't worry Im sending it back cheers for the help though simon

do I have to stop the program from running to download to it? I still cant get the password to work properly? thanks simon

when I plug in the cable it automatically downloads a driver called ch340. I think this is by winchiphead.com they have information about a chip called ch340.

I have tried this and nothing. i plug in the plc and the power and run lights are on. should the run light be on? also some of the output lights are on? any help! thanks simon

hello I bought a micrologix 1000 off ebay, plugged it in and tried to download a program I made to test the plc. then up popped a window that said proc name SEL_MK5 enter password or master password I tried entering that telephone number or the memclear micrologix thing but that didn't work. when I turn on the plc the run light is on. should this be off? I don't know if im stuck with a duff plc here. I have windows 7 so I don't know if that comlite 32 would work? any help would be great!!! thanks simon Bradley, ONLY ANOTHER 340 OR SO DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!! YAY!!!!

when I look in the usb properties it says, 8 bit none and 1 bit instead of what is mentioned above. 7 bit even 1 bit. I have tried to change these with no luck. I cant change the settings on the usb properties. just in gx developer. if you put this in search on youtube it will show the video I made of me trying to get the cable working with the plc "problems with sc09 driver for plc cable Mitsubishi melsec fx1s"

I thought I mentioned it above melsec fx1s 30mr es/ul

hello I don't want to hijack a post or anything but I would like a little help with a problem im having I bought a cable from ebay, usb sco9 fx, it says windows 7 compatible I have a cd with it but none of the relevant drivers work. I have the yellow cable 422 to usb with a box in the centre, two leds, on tx and the other rx. I plugged it in and it says com 7, I clicked on the drivers and it says two. one serenum.sys and CH341s64.sys are these the right drivers. I have emailed the seller and no luck yet. I have connected it to my fx1s30mr and tried connecting it. though I don't have any good instructions for connecting the hardware and software. I have gx developer, it says cannot communicate, check connections and then an ES 1802007 number the speed is 9.6 com 7 I don't know what else to do. I also have an allen Bradley micrologix 1000, would this cable work for that as well? any help would be great thanks simon
