Good day experts!
There's an old WinCC system (v4 running on Windows NT) that includes Omron CPUs (SYSMAC C200HE CPU42) which communicates via RS232.
The WinCC PC station has 9-pins male RS232 port, has "Simatic WinCC OMRON C-Series Hostlink" on installed softwares and also has "OMRON C-SERIES HOSTLINK" on WinCC Tag Management (Driver).
Now I want to replace that old WinCC station. Do you think I can also have all of this on the newer PC and WinCC versions available today, say WinCC v7 on Windows 7? If not, what do you think could I do to communicate the said Omron on RS232 with WinCC v7?
Thanks for any response!
