UniComal and Mitsubishi FX

From 1983 thru 2003 I have been working with repairs and maintenance of machinery at Orlik Tobacco Comapany A/S in Holstebro, Denmark. My job was, besides repairs, troubleshooting eg., programming and installation of new controllers. Primarily Mitsubishi PLC's.
Since the late eighties I've worked a lot in UniComal. During this time I've worked a lot with communication from a PC-programme to Mitsubishi PLC's.
For this purpose I have written a module, which makes it easy to read data from and visa versa write data to the PLC. By means of the module it's eg. possible to write 'sr("m200",true)' that sets the intermediate relay M200 in the PLC. The command 'sr("m200",false)' will likewise reset the same relay.
The module makes it likewise easy to read from and write to the data-registers in the PLC. In the same manner, you will be able to control timers and counters. The computer (PC) works perfectly as a 'man to machine interface' and to control recepies and so on and afterwards lets the PLC control the real process.
I have come across the MarcharSoft in Scotland who's dealing a lot with UniComal. The UniComal logo above is a link to their site.

I would like to get in contact with other people, who are working in UniComal, and who's interested in communication with other sorts of machinery, like PLC's and so on. I'm willing to share my module with others, who's seriously working with these things. As something new I've startet learning to write programmes in DELPHI, to make programmes working in a Windows invironment. But all start is difficult. Nothing venture, nothing win.
