actuator

[nicola]

i have build an actuater on the parallel port, but incredible with the
serial palett with lpt1 device adress, nothing.
With the advanced memory bloc (port out,subroutine) the actuator works.
Why?
How is possible to introduce the in/out signal in office or database ? ex.
if i have a timer control and i would write the time of duty cicle in the
excel file or other....
thank's and sorry for my bad language.

How do you access the pins of the port? In a kind of "print" to a
"printer"? Printing is a handshake job - no handshake, and printing
stops.

Thank's,
The actuator is directly connected by pin 2-9 of parallele port, and the
system to be start just with advanced port-out, because is possible to
adressing it.(see 378 adress parallel port).
With the serial palette i don't have nothing response also i have adress
with port#10 (help suggest).
Now the system work but i would like to insert a timer and writing in the
excel.

hello nicola,
your application is not completely clear to me - but it
seems that you want to write values (e.g. times) to an
EXCEL-application. You should have a look to LabVIEW Help / ActiveX-examples.
How to get your values via parallel or serial port is
the second thing. If you need help - please describe your problem and mail to: werner.hasche@web.de
