RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Parallel port EMC pins

Karl,

If you use bridgeportio the location is is on the second parallel port. If
you look at the bottom of your ini file you should find someting like
follows (from the feb 2000 generic.ini)

; address for parallel port used for auxiliary IO
PARPORT_IO_ADDRESS = 0x278 *****************determines what
port the io is using

; wait times in seconds for spindle brake, release
SPINDLE_OFF_WAIT = 1.0
SPINDLE_ON_WAIT = 1.5

; external digital inputs, outputs are always 0 for 0V, 1 for 5/24V

; digital in bits

ESTOP_SENSE_INDEX = 1 ****************determines the pin
on the status port
LUBE_SENSE_INDEX = 2

; digital in polarity, 0 is inverted, 1 is normal
; controller compares with polarity, equal means on, not equal means off

ESTOP_SENSE_POLARITY = 0 *****************Sets the status
LUBE_SENSE_POLARITY = 1

; digital out bits

SPINDLE_FORWARD_INDEX = 1
SPINDLE_REVERSE_INDEX = 0
MIST_COOLANT_INDEX = 6
FLOOD_COOLANT_INDEX = 7
SPINDLE_DECREASE_INDEX = 8
SPINDLE_INCREASE_INDEX = 9
ESTOP_WRITE_INDEX = 10 *****************determines the
output pin
SPINDLE_BRAKE_INDEX = 11

; analog out bits

SPINDLE_ON_INDEX = 3

; digital out polarity, 0 is inverted, 1 is normal
; controller writes the polarity to turn on, opposite of polarity to turn
off

SPINDLE_FORWARD_POLARITY = 0
SPINDLE_REVERSE_POLARITY = 0
MIST_COOLANT_POLARITY = 0
FLOOD_COOLANT_POLARITY = 0
SPINDLE_DECREASE_POLARITY = 1
SPINDLE_INCREASE_POLARITY = 1
ESTOP_WRITE_POLARITY = 1
SPINDLE_BRAKE_POLARITY = 0
SPINDLE_ENABLE_POLARITY = 1


Go to my websit eant there is a page on the parallel port.
