An EPICS driver for the Koyo PLC line (DirectNet) is planned.
Connection wil be RS232.
Since it's not a top priority, the implementation is TBA.

John Quintana has already written scripts in "expect" that allow his
linux machine to communicate with the memory of the Koyo PLC.  It
should be simple to connect these up to channel access.
