Hello All,
I have spent many hours trying to get Direct I/O
to work on my new computer so that I could send CW
via my LPT port.
The computer uses Windows XP.
Well I finally figured it out!! I'm sure most already have
gotten it to work but I'm not very computer literate.
Anyway here is the way to do it:
1 - Open the Direct I/O control panel.
2 - In the I/O Ports Tab enter the BEGIN and END address.
For LPT1 it is 378 and 37A.
3 - Click ADD button ( This is the step they left out)..
4 - Go to the SECURITY Tab
5 - Click BROWSE button and locate writelog directory.
6 - From there locate writelog\Programs\WriteL32.exe and click OPEN
7 - Click ADD.
8 - Close Control Panel...
That's it!! It works great.... Good Luck.
73, Ted K2QMF
P.S. - Remember you must do step 3 or forgetaboutit...
