How to Implement Omron PLC Host Link Protocol

Hostlink communication protocol is a method developed by Omron for communication to PLCs and other equipment. This ASCII-based protocol is used over RS232 or RS422/RS485. It is a many-to-one implementation which means that you can communicate with up to 32 devices back to a master. (1:N) This communication on the industrial floor can control PLCs, Temperature Controllers, Panel Meters, etc. More information can be obtained from our website: https://accautomation.ca/how-to-implement-the-omron-plc-host-link-protocol/ 00:00 How to Implement Omron PLC Host Link Protocol 00:21 Reviewing the VB6 code 01:27 Running the Code https://www.accautomation.ca
