Appendix 2 MX Component
Appendix 2.1 Functions of MX Component
The MX Component is used to access to the PLC CPU via various communication paths
with the applications created by Visual Basic
®
, Visual C++
®
, VBScript and VBA.
In this textbook, the applications are created by Visual Basic
®
and accessed to the PLC
CPU via Ethernet.
(1) Support of a wide range of communication paths for PLC
A wide range of communication paths to the PLC is supported to enable the user to
configure a system as desired.
You can make communication with the
specified PLC easily without being
aware of the communication protocol.
