FX5U Communication

[Nugro 1]

Hi All,

Just quick question, is it possible to access FX5U PLC from more than 5 PC at same time (Online monitoring) ?

Thanks & Regards

Sure just make some extra melsoft connections in the ethernet  port parameters

Hi Gambit,

Thanks for reply

I'm using Gx work3 to monitor my plc, but when I run MX Sheet, connection cannot establish, unless I disconnect my GX work 3 both are from different PC. I'm using unmanaged switch to connect communicate 3 HMI and 1 Modbus TCP for other connection. See picture attached. I'm trying to figure out how can i modify my PLC in case I'm away but another PC logging via MX Sheet. Is it because I'm using password on my PLC ?  

Thanks & Regards.

Do you have a password on the ethernet connection ?

It should be melsoft not SLMP when usning Mitsubishi hardware/software

Yes, I'm using password for my PLC. All SLMP connection I'm using to connect to Weintek HMI. So should I add a Melsoft connection ? See picture below

yes but there is a difference between a password for the porgram and a password for the connection.

For the weintek you will need an SLMP connection for the MX connection use MELSOFT Connections.

Your example is correct !!!!
