hoe can I communicate PLC to PC

[Guest druzzo]

Hi, I'm pretty new i this forum, i got a second hand F1 Mitsubishi PLC, and I have MEDOC software. The problem that I have is that I don't have the communication interface between PLC and PC. Can you help me to build an interface to communicate PC to PLC??? Thanks

For the F1&F2 PLC's you need an interface module. This is called an F2-20 GF1 which connects to the front of the PLC. You will then need the older comms cable (SC-02 or SC-03 I can't remember) to connect this to your PC. I wish you luck in finding a F2-20 GF1 as they have been obsolete for some years now. Perhaps Mitsubishi will loan you one FOC if you are using their new PLC's for the replacement. Otherwise you have to pay!

F2-20GF1 and PCX-KIT-1 are the part numbers to order for this. And keep in mind you will only be able to use the old DOS MEDOC software. The F1 and F2 are not supported by anything newer.
