QuestionWorking With USB to Parallel adapter Pin
McElwees23-Jul-06 8:44

I am hoping someone out there can point me in the right direction.

What I have is a Dell 9300 Laptop that only has USB ports

My problem is I am a EET Student with a Lab project board (MDE8255-1 LPT)
info here: http://www.microdigitaled.com/hardware/mdelpt/MDELPT.htm[^]
that is designed for communication via parallel port.

What I have is a USB to Parallel adapter I picked up from Fry's. It is a "Syba USB 1.1 to parallel port cable". with Drivers built by MOSchip
Info Below:
http://www.moschip.com/html/MCS7705.html[^]

http://www.moschip.com/data/products/MCS7705/Data%20Sheet_7705.pdf[^]

what I want to do is write some code in Visual Studio.Net VC++ to handle the communication between my laptop and the trainer board. What do I need to do to setup a communication channel?

I've searched MSDN and tried their example for communication through COM1 and modified it for LPT3, that is what my USB-Para is installed as. I've searched this site and tried some of the example from
http://home.ict.nl/~ramklein/Projects/Serial.html[^]
and
http://www.codeproject.com/system/AsefPortAccess.asp[^]

These don't work for me with a little mod here or there. I am sure I am doing something totaly wrong. That is why I have come here for some guidance.

What do I need to do to get even just some rudimentary communication to and from the trainer board.

If any one is able to respond to my request don't be afraid that I am not able to read. Post all the links to resources that are usefully on this subject and be as detailed as you like. Ohhhh, and I love examples. The more the better.
