MEDOC 2.4 or GX Developer can program it. Manuals are online at Mitsubishi's website. Standard SC09 programming cables work fine. Keep in mind too that 10" A Series family was completely discontinued in 2006. It should be upgraded to a Q.

thanks crossbow, do you know if its much of a job to change to anewer series . dont they make any spares at all now then stuart

A2N is from the late 80s. The entire platform was finally obsoleted in 2006. If someone has stock, you can go that route, but production was stopped. GX Developer can convert the program from A to Q. Then there is a free software tool to compare the old and new programs and flag any potential issues for editing.
