Not exactly the first problem is the dro is not an absolute dro. Basically it can loose its zero point aswell as skip a beat if moved to fast. This can be fixed by upgrading to a absolute dro witch iguage (the brand that comes on the machine) makes a absolute model that is basically a direct replacement for what is their. They have a communication cable that can be bought separately but to my knowledge it can only transmit data statically. Basically you have to push a button to log a point. But the next issue becomes logging the load data. The load cells have a "printer" out put but I believe it's the same scenario you have to push a button to get a data point. So it makes it a little convoluted. Someone pretty tech savy could get it going but I'm not sure how user friendly it would be

The load cell should have an analog mv/V signal, which is what the display uses. You can plot that real time by converting with the appropriate acquisition card. The load cell is just a strain gauge bridge where you excite it with a voltage and you get a mV output that is proportional to the load applied.
