emc2 doesn't include any "serial protocol" drivers. You would have to write the driver to do this yourself.
The most important thing to know is that emc2 requires a new feedback position at the servo rate (typically 1ms) and emc (not external hardware) has to control when the feedback position is retrieved. The first DRO-with-rs232-output I looked at (http://www.newall.com/DROs/c80_rs232.htm) has a maximum report rate of 0.5 seconds per report, and the timing is controlled by the DRO, not by the PC. I don't think that this source of position feedback is a good one for emc.
