[WriteLog] RIG SWITCHING AND OTHER LPT1 THINGS

[Don Beattie]

I am new to Writelog, and am having a little trouble with my SO2R setup.

I want to use LPT1 to provide switching of the SO2R box between two rigs. I also want to take CW keying from LPT1, and PTT. As far as I can see from the manual, this should be possible. I have it working with another well-known Windows-based contest programme (!), using LPT1.

I am running XP and have installed direct-io.

I get no switching data coming off LPT, and it seems that direct-io has not activated the LPT1 port.

I guess I've done something silly - any guidance would be much appreciated.
