TOP Server and Mitsubishi Q Series Controllers with built in Ethernet Ports

Does the TOP Server Mitsubishi Driver Suite support communications with Q Series Controllers with Built in Ethernet Ports?

The Q Series CPUs with built in Ethernet ports are most certainly supported, but the default communication ports in TOP Server will not be correct. In order to configure the communications, a few settings must be verified in the PLCs Ethernet Port Settings in GX Works2; found under PLC Parameter.

  1. Verify the IP Address settings
  2. The Communication Data Code should be set to Binary
  3. In Open Setting verify whether whether TCP or UDP is selected for the Protocol
  4. In Open System verify that MC Protocol is selected
  5. Specify the Host Station Port Number - valid port ranges are 1025-4999 (0x0401H - 0x1387H) and 5010 to 65534 (0x1392H - 0xFFFEH)

Please note that the default TOP Server ports of 5000 (UDP) and 5001 (TCP) are NOT included in the ranges above.

Q Series Controllers with built in Ethernet ports will not have network or station number. When configuring the device address these should be set to:

<IP Address>:N0:255 or <IP Address>:255
