Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check PLCGateway support every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 5

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

device
device_support
Checks whether a PLC, CNC, controller family, model, brand or protocol is supported and returns its page: which driver, connection settings, address syntax with examples, what can be read, tips and FAQ. Examples: "S7-1200", "CompactLogix", "MELSEC iQ-R", "FANUC 0i-F", "Modbus RTU", "IEC 104", "BACnet". Without a match it lists the supported protocols.
docs
search_docs
Searches all pages of plcgateway.com (products, modules, protocols, controllers, guides) and returns the best matching pages with URL and summary. Follow up with product_info or device_support for the full text.
price
price_quote
Calculates the list price of PLCGateway licences in EUR, excluding VAT: product, number of computers, optional modules (SCADA and Embedded only) and optional years of updates and support after the first year (included). Licences are perpetual, one per computer, with every driver and no device or tag limit. Embedded and Enterprise are priced on request: offer request_demo then.
product
product_info
Explains what a PLCGateway product, module or topic is for, who it is for, what it includes and how it works, from the official website. Topics: overview (compare Connect, SCADA and Embedded, what each includes, platforms), connect (machine connectivity and OPC UA server), scada (screens, alarms, history, reports, OEE), embedded (operator panel on the device's own display, ARM panels, panel PCs), quality_maintenance (module: SPC control charts, maintenance plans, CMMS), energy (module: ISO 50001 energy management), oee_production (production model, OEE, batches, downtime), ai_mcp (the MCP server built into every product and what AI assistants can do with it), integrations (OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus TCP server, REST API), protocols (all drivers and supported controllers), pricing (prices, licences, trial, maintenance), plc_gateway_guide (what a PLC gateway is), kepserverex_migration (moving tags from KEPServerEX), contact, references (customers and installations: in use at factories in many countries, names not published).
request
request_demo
Sends a demo, trial or offer request to the PLCGateway team by e-mail; they answer the user directly. Ask the user for their name and e-mail address; company, phone, the product they are interested in and a short description of their machines and goals are optional but help. Never invent, guess or reuse contact details the user did not give for this request. Before calling, show the user exactly what will be sent and ask for permission; set user_confirmed to true only after they explicitly agreed. Their details are used only to answer the request (privacy notice: https://plcgateway.com/privacy).

PLCGateway support — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can PLCGateway support do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: device_support, price_quote, product_info, request_demo, search_docs. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is PLCGateway support working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 334 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect PLCGateway support?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does PLCGateway support need an API key?
No. PLCGateway support completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is PLCGateway support?
It answers our handshake in 334 ms on average, which is faster than 43% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
