GX Works2

Integrated PLC Engineering Software
Ultimate evolution of PLC engineering software
International Standard IEC 61131-3 compliant

Now an easy-to-use engineering software is no surprise.
In addition to its sophisticated usability, the engineering software GX Works2 deploys the global mainstream concepts of "grouping" and "structuring" for fundamental improvement of programming efficiency.
The world-standard engineering style begins with GX Works2.

Enhanced coordination with factory automation devices

Supporting Universal model high-speed CPUs

GX Works2 now supports the Universal model high-speed type QCPU module which has a greatly improved operation and processing speed for basic operations, structural instructions and FB call functions. Use GX Works2 to easily control the next-generation high-speed CPU equipped with advanced functions.

GX Works2 support

● Universal model high-speed type QCPU^*1
Q03UDVCPU, Q04UDVCPU, Q06UDVCPU Q13UDVCPU,
Q26UDVCPU

*1. Supported by GX Works2 version 1.98C and higher.

Coordination with PX Developer supports process applications

By coordinating with PX Developer^*2, sequence and loop control programs can be created for process/redundant CPU.

Process system programming example

Batch control of various factory automation devices

Coordination with various automation devices is now more powerful.
GX Works2 is used to set and monitor various automation devices on any platform.
Improve manufacturing site efficiency by integrating with high-performance and high-function devices.

Configuration, start up and adjustment, operation and maintenance of the simple motion module are powerfully supported.

The power measurement module’s parameters are set from GX Works2 without a manual.
In addition, the parameter settings and measured value are confirmed easily. (Intelligent function module monitor supported)
Swift startup using GX Works2 supports energy conservation of the system.

Supported modules

QE81WH, QE81WH4W, QE83WH4W, QE84WH, QE82LG

Sensor integration 

Parameters for the iQ Sensor Solution (iQSS) compatible partner sensor products are set and monitored, and the sensor's connection state and current values are confirmed with graphically displays, allowing troubles to be handled quickly.
