Mitsubishi Q, E View, Excel

[mikeb]

Hi, Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this. We are building a system that will use E View as the operator interface. We need to import data from an Excel spreadsheet into the plc (D registers. E View supports Access, but not Excel (I think) I know you can convert Excel files to Access, but this is a step I would rather not have to do. Is there a way to easily get Excel data into the Q plc with E View. Thanks in advance of any help or suggestions. Mike B

>Is there a way to easily get Excel data into the Q plc with E View. Just informing: There are special commands to Q Fwrite and Fread. With these you can move data in csv-format (excel supported), but you may need a memory card and maybe ethernet connection to plc and ftp. E-view not needed. I have never played with these, check A/Q-programming manual. Mitsubishi-automation.com Tmu
