FAQs / Re: Setting Mach 3 Port to PCI parallel port address

« on: October 21, 2014, 12:24:27 AM »

Same question as above I've installed a PCI parallel card and tried the suggested fixes. Current state:

PCI Multi-IO Controller
Manufacturer: asix electronics
Location: PCI slot 3
I/o range A000 - A007
I/o range A400 - A40F (also has about 6 other ranges listed)
Irq 18

PCI parallel port (lpt2)
Location 3
Lpt port number: lpt2
I/o range 9800 - 9807
I/o range 9c00 - 9c07

I've listed both ports above because when I installed the card and drivers both appeared in the device manager....

I'm at a loss. I can't determine if I'm getting any communication from Mach3 to the port. I've tried multiple port settings and address' and when I test the pins output I get nothing.  (Actually I'm getting a steady 5.14 volts all the time)
I've also set the parallel port to EPP in the bios. Please, anyone. What did I screw up this time?
