Ask specific questions. Do you know what USB means? It's just a Universal Serial Bus, an interface for any kind of device. Nowadays each device has a device driver which handles the complex interface so it's usually transparent to the user.

the PLC? $$anonymous$$ay you enlighten us what PLC you're talking about?

I guess you talk about a Programmable Logic Controller? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peT7Yq0Xyd$$anonymous$$

How about editing your question and ask a real, detailed question that can be understood and be answered ins$$anonymous$$d of posting one abbreviated 10 words sentence.

If you mean programmable logic controller, then yes. USB is probably the hardest route to go though, most PLCs communicate over a specific field-bus. Best one hands down would be a Beckhoff controller. They have an ADS layer for EtherCAT machine control communication with C# libraries.
