its possible to communicate Mitsubishi PLC Fx5u-M32 (Ethernet TCP/IP) to Node red using "node-red-contrib-cip-ethernet-ip" ??
Probably not.
For starters, I'm fairly certain that node is specifically for Allen Bradley Comms (I could be wrong).
Next, I'm fairly certain mitsubishi don't do EtherNet/IP (at least not without a ÂŁ2000 C processor module running code written by frustrated engineers no doubt haha. EIP4CCPU anyone???)
Ok, so a quick search of that cpu reveals it does in fact seem the FX has a ENET/IP module with EtherNet/IP support. Nice. #at-long-last 
Unfortunately, as I pointed out earlier, I believe all the EIP nodes only do PCCC Allen Bradley specific stuff.
You'll likely have to go down one of these 3 paths...
- PLC -->OPC-UA server --> node-red (node-red-contrib-iiot-opcua)
- Write (or wait for someone) to publish an MC Protocol node-red node.
- Use raw sockets

Thanks for your reply .
This Mitsubishi PLC is a CC-Link IE Communication protocol [Ethernet ] .,
do u have any documents or web links for this setups .., -->> 1. PLC -->OPC-UA server --> node-red (node-red-contrib-iiot-opcua) please share to below mail id sandeepanj123@gmail.com
Just install one of the many OPC servers (e.g. kepware - or - mitsubishi mx-opc V6 - or - etc etc etc), then install the node I mentioned.
No one will have step by step info, you'll have to do some trial and error and lots of reading.
Btw, CC link IE is NOT EtherNet/IP. And I doubt anyone has a nodejs driver capable of communication to CC Link IE.
Go down one of the three paths I mentioned first.
Thank You Boss:heart_eyes:.,
What you trying to do!? Why don't use modbus!?
/iqapps
this is not having modbus communication .
U mean your application not goning to have modbus communication!?
And yes fx5 series have built-in modbus both rs485 and tcp/ip.
U wanna to control /send fx5 data to Schneider Magelis IOT..
Tip take in all of data u need trough modbus from fx5 to node red then send it to Magelis IOT trough whatever protocol it's supported still through node red flow....

Hi. Thanks for the feedback, but this is a 5 year old thread.
For future folk landing in this thread, there is now a node named node-red-contrib-mcprotocol which is designed for reading and writing data to/from mitsubishi PLCs using mc-protocol over Ethernet.
