Hi all.
I have aquired a Mitsubishi Melsec FX2N-32MR and some extension modules and would like to get some PLC programming experience
Even thou I'm an pretty experienced embedded software developer I haven't very much experience with PLC's so I have a couple of questions.
Are there any free or cheap software development tools that I can use instead of buying the rather expensive Mitsubishi GX Developer ?
I also have a FX2N-485-BD extension board, can I connect the pc used for developing the software via this or do I need the serial cable with the round 8-pin PS/2 like plug ?
I haven't got an EEPROM board, do I need that for storing software in the controller ?
Regards
Christian
