Hello everyone.

I use Mitsubishi plc Q03udecpu, also qd65pd2(encoder module 2-channel input). I wish to read encoder pulses(location) and also GPS coordinates(rs-232port).

These data should been save in computer file. I need some idea how to do. Do mitsubishi has any software to record data and after take a look? For display i use GOT Soft 2000..

Thank you for any suggestions.

You can do that really easily on the GOT with the logging function. It is on the left tree in GT designer under "Project." You can set it up to sample PLC devices at set intervals or on a one shot etc. and save the log data to files (including CSV which is good for excel).

I have done this on physical GOT HMIs but I have never used soft GOT. As its running on a PC I would imagine it can save CSVs directly on the HDD. On the physical GOT you need a USB stick or SD card and to get the data directly on the PC without an "air gap" would require some software implementing MC protocol to communicate with PLC.
