GX Developer - MELSOFT-Mitsubishi PLC Software

GX Developer supports all MELSEC controllers from the compact PLCs of the MELSEC FX series to the modular PLCs including MELSEC System Q. This software shines with a simple, intuitive interface and a short learning curve.

GX Developer supports the MELSEC instruction list (IL), MELSEC ladder diagram (LD) and MELSEC sequential function chart (SFC) languages. You can switch back and forth between IL and LD at will while you are working. You can program your own function blocks (MELSEC QnA/QnAS/System Q series), and a wide range of utilities are available for configuring special function modules for the MELSEC System Q. And "configure" is the operative word here - you no longer need to program special function modules, you just configure them.

The package includes powerful editors and diagnostics functions for configuring your MELSEC networks and hardware, and extensive testing and monitoring functions to help you get your applications up and running quickly and efficiently.

You can also test all of your program's key functions before they are implemented with the GX Simulator offline simulation mode.

GX Simulator also enables you to simulate all your devices and application responses for realistic testing.
  • Standard programming software for all MELSEC PLCs
  • Comfortable prompting under Microsoft Windows
  • Ladder Diagram, Instruction List or Sequential Function Chart
  • Changeable during operation
  • Powerful monitoring and test functions
  • Offline simulation for all PLC types
  • No hardware needed

GX Configurator - MELSOFT-Mitsubishi PLC Software

GX Configurator DP can be used to configure all Profibus/DP modules of Mitsubishi's modular PLCs. In addition to MELSEC PLCs it also supports connection of Mitsubishi frequency inverters, the E series of graphical control units and remote I/O modules.

Integrating slave modules from third-party manufacturers is as easy as importing the GSD data. GX Configurator DP makes Profibus/DP very easy to handle. To configure your network with this software system you just drag ready-to-use graphical images of your devices onto the Profibus/DP network representation on the screen. Then you enter the device station numbers and specify which PLC addresses you want to allocate to the remote Profibus/DP slaves. A wide range of user parameters are supported for the Profibus/DP-Slaves; configuration is handled transparently with the GSD files.

Key features include:
  • Easy set-up for Europe's most popular network
  • Supports Mitsubishi Profibus products and 3rd party products
  • No PLC programming skills neededGraphical interface for easy set-up
  • Easy to understand network layout
  • User-friendly configuration software for PROFIBUS/DP
  • 32-Bit version for MS Windows 95/98 and NT4/2000
  • Supports the configuration for all PROFIBUS/DP modules
  • Wide range of user parameters by using GSD files for configuration
  • Easy configuration of 3rd party slave units
  • Download of the tabular configuration data via network
