Communicating between FX1N PLC and Frequency drive

Communicating between FX1N PLC and Frequency drive

(OP)
I am using the IEC GX developer from Misubishi and I am looking for sample code to communicate with RS-485 between a FX-1N PLC and a E500 drive.  Any ideas where I can get sample code.  Mitsubishi here in USA is not familiar with the IEC version of GX developer.

RE: Communicating between FX1N PLC and Frequency drive

Blu,

I've got some sample code you might take a look at, however I'm not familiar with the IEC version of GX.  

The code was initially generated by a local Mitsubishi factory guy.  I am currently using a slightly modified version in an FX-1S with an A540 series drive.  Drop a line here and I'll see what I can do.  As usual, <insert legalize here>, regarding any guarantees.
