Sure, it should be possible. I believe the protocol spec for Host Link is published, and perhaps other Omron protocols as well.

Unfortunately, I believe it's ASCII only, no 8-bit mode, but oh well.

Hello,

OMRON has several communication protocols.

OMROM publishes a manual, Communications Commands Reference Manual as well as other documents that cover the protocols.

W342-E1-11 is one.

Good luck,

Mark
