I frequently use the GE Fanuc Programable Coprocessor module to control various external devices via a serial link. My latest project involves getting the PCM to communicate with an intercom system. While I've done this with a number of intercom systems, I am using a new one for which I have not yet written a communications driver (I normally do that in C). Before I re-invent the wheel, I wonder if anyone has used a Dukane Starcall system, and successfully controlled it via RS232.

Thanks,

The Miille Applied Research Co. Omnii-Comm has a Dukane interface. It was used to connect to a Dukane MACS II intercom and paging system. If the
protocol is the same for the starcall system this would allow you to connect the units with no programing.
