the LPT port
WinPC-NC Economy actuates a connected machine directly by the
existing printer port without requirement for additional hardware.
However, it is not possible to identify the address of the port
automatically. This information can be learned from the device
manager in the windows operating system.
Please execute the following steps:
• open the device manager under My Computer, control panel,
system, hardware
• open the category Ports COM & LPT and select the LPT port
which is connected to the machine
• select with the right mouse button the function properties and then
resources
• note the port address under which the LPT port is integrated into
the system. For internal ports the port address usually is 0378hex.
Identification of the LPT port address by the device manager
The detected port address has to be registered in Win PC-NC under
parameter-ports-address of LPT-port. The procedure is finished by
clicking Save and OK.
i
When the program is delivered the LPT port address is
registered with 0378hex by default.
Further signals and inputs can be activated by WinPC-NC Economy
