Mitsubishi fx & Visual Basic / mx-component

[plcman]

Hi

Can anybody tell me where I can get hold of the mx-component activex that allows me to send and recieve data to and from an fx PLC in VB6.

Many Thanks

I don't know of any activeX's, but you can use the TOP Server with it's Mishubishi FX driver. You can connect to this server via DDE or use an OPC ActiveX if you need the data faster. See the

web site to get a free demo. It works reasonablly well, but you do have to buy one for each project, unlike an activeX.
