PLC Field Notebook: MELSEC I/O

PLC Field Notebook (formerly PLC IO Check) lets you quickly check and monitor the I/O status of Mitsubishi MELSEC PLCs in the field. Connect to the PLC directly over Ethernet from your phone : no PC or special hardware required : and read device values in real time.

■ Features
- IO Check : verify your registered X/Y I/O in the field as OK/NG (Manual, Auto, and Guided-sequence modes). Automatically flags cross-wiring and shorts, shows OK/NG badges in the list, and shares a CSV/summary report
- Direct MC Protocol / SLMP communication over Ethernet (TCP/UDP), 3E/4E Frame, Binary/ASCII
- ON/OFF monitoring of bit devices (X/Y/M/L/B)
- Word device values (D/W/ZR) : decimal/hex, signed/32-bit/float/string display
- Unlimited device registration, free monitoring activates up to the top 50 devices, auto-polling and manual refresh
- Auto-registration : create device sequences from a start address, step, and count
- Organize devices into collapsible hierarchical groups with drag-to-reorder, delete a whole group, and expand/collapse all groups at once
- Group/search/status filters, isolated error display
- Batch Monitor : enter devices and addresses directly to read multiple values in a table
- IO Grouping : quickly view device I/O on separate input and output signal cards
- Save, open, export, and share multiple projects as .plc files between devices
- Display languages : Korean, English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Vietnamese, with dark and light themes
- GX Works Import : open GX Works2 projects (.gxw) or comment/ladder CSV files, register new devices or merge comments, recover X/Y comments, group by device type or POU, preview the POU tree, and warn about duplicate coils
- Simple Logger : record events from direct BIT/WORD address conditions or periodic triggers and export recent logs to CSV. Pending records are recovered when you next open or start Simple Logger to prevent missing or duplicate entries
- Simple HMI : supports DISPLAY value, MOTION movement, and VISIBILITY bit bindings. Elements hide only when VISIBILITY is OFF and remain visible before data arrives, on read errors, or when monitoring stops
- In-app GX Works communication setup guide
- Calculators and tools : programmer calculator, electronic gear ratio, circumference, trigonometry, analog scaling, communication codes including checksum and CRC-16, serial transmission time, UVW stage alignment, ASCII table, and ASCII converter

※ Simple Logger entry, viewing, and recording plus core IO checking, monitoring, and calculators are free. One rewarded ad grants one token. One token is used only after a successful LOG/IO CSV save, GX Works new import/comment merge, or to hide bottom banners for 12 hours. Failed, cancelled, and no-op work is not charged. No in-app purchases or cash-equivalent rewards.

■ Supported
- MELSEC Q series (verified with QJ71E71-100 module and QnUDV built-in Ethernet)
- MELSEC iQ-R series (verified with RJ71EN71 module and built-in Ethernet)
- MC Protocol (SLMP) compatible Ethernet configurations

■ Safety
- This app is read-only (monitoring). It does not modify equipment.

GX Works2 (.gxw) import is a compatibility convenience that extracts devices and comments from files you own. Results are for reference only : some devices or comments may be missing or interpreted differently, so always verify before field use. For complete, accurate data, exporting a comment CSV from GX Works2 is recommended. Password-protected (secured) files are not opened.
