Go to ports and pins, Input pins, and look at the available pins for input. All the pins NOT listed as inputs can be used as outputs.
Mach3 parallel port outputs
A quick question, can Mach3 be configured to use pins 14,16 and 17 as outputs?
My drivers have an enable line and I would like to have the enable controlled by Mach3. As it sits I have my enable line tied to +5 so the drive is enabled all the time. Standard setup for Stp/Dir, 2&3, 4&5, 6&7 but that only leaves pin 8 as an output.
Parallel port wiki Parallel port - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia says pins 14, 16, 17 can be used as input or output.
Thanks for the help.
Note, I could install a second PP but I would like to avoid that.

I forgot to get back to this thread, yes I was able to use pins 14,16,17 as outputs.
Thank You.
