Mach3 under Vista / Parallel Port Problems
« on: April 23, 2012, 05:27:49 PM »
Hi, I'm new here and hoping someone can help me get setup...Here's what I have:
Win7 32 bit with Sunix MIO5469A PCIe parallel port card with sunix driver and Mach3 driver
The driver tests works fine and Mach3 is setup correct but I'm not getting an output at the parallel port. I'm measuring a constant 3.3v on data pins.
I think it may be an addressing issue as the LPT1 port doesn't have a resources tab under properties in device manager where you would normally find the address... The address of that PCI slot didn't work either.
Anyway this little program at the bottom of the page as well as running debug, d40:00 in DOS leads me to believe the correct address is 378 like you would expect.
Parmon shows the right outputs on 378, but it's not reflected in real life
... any idea? TIA
