You should talk to the people who created it - they should provide technical support and will know more about their product than we will. If they don't, then find another supplier and demand your money back!

Omron supply PC software that will talk to it, they have pretty reasonable tech support: Technical Support | OMRON Industrial Automation[^] and even do free eLearning courses which may help you.

I believe you have to get a communication library from Omron to speak to it on the USB port. I am not entirely certain. I do know that for a "Universal" bus, it is not very easy to work with USB unless you have a vendor-supplied library.

With luck, you will get the N series CP1E CPU with a serial option card that includes an ethernet port. That will allow you to use sockets and Omron's proprietary protocol which they have documented and there is sample code available. Another option is to use the Modbus protocol with a serial port and that is also well documented.
