    You are pretty much limited to using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, either Visual Basic or C#, with RAB 5.08 or higher. It would be much simpler to use the LAN port of the controller for connectivity, which requires the RobotWare option PC Interface. RAB is a Software Development Kit, so it does require prior experience with .Net programming to be used effectively.
