I would look to a solution that uses OPC technology to achieve what you want. There are plenty of vendors that supply OPC Servers for Omron products - Look at KepWare and Matrikon as 2 of the bigger vendors. Omron may even supply there own OPC Server that you can use. The OPC Server talks to the PLC hardware through communication drivers and you then write a client application in C# to read and write to the PLC via the OPC Server.

There are a few examples on Code Project and as OPC is designed to remove the vendor specific quirks of hardware communication, what works for one PLC vendor will usually work for another with minimal changes. It may seem daunting at first, but there is a .NET wrapper around the OPC Core. Have a look at the OPC Foundation website for further details.

I've been working on a C# client that talks to Siemens hardware via an OPC Server recently and once you get a grip of how the OPC Server organises and presents the individual IO tags of the PLC hardware its an elegant system to use. It also scales very well with my C# client detecting changes in the PLC within 15ms even though its monitoring over 6000 tags!
