Hi, Danne  
I also encounter many users who use Mitsubishi PLCs, so I usually recommend connecting through Modbus TCP with Mitsubishi PLCs.

However, many people still report that the experience is not very user-friendly. Unfortunately, sometimes it is simply the only practical workaround available.

Which of the Mitsubishi protocols are you referring to? If It’s for the MELSOFT family using SLMP / MC Protocol with the 3E binary frame … I don’t have an open-source solution for you as that driver is part of our commercial SDK, but I just started a post here asking if I should publish a little tool, that I built.
