You can use the comport.txt feature to send ttl signals from MediaLab over a serial port. See the section named "Sending Streams of Serial Data" here in the MediaLab manual:

Thanks for the advice!
When I was previously using a parallel port to send the signals to Acqknowledge, I would write something like this in the parameters field to send a signal of 20 for one second: ,(<20:888:1000>). What would be the equivalent for sending it through the parallel port? (<{20:888:1000}>)?
And, am I correct in understanding that my comport.txt file needs only the following information:
comPort, baudRate, parity, dataBit, stopBit
1,19200,n,8,1
input code (1-255), response value (1-12)
0,0
Thanks again,
Leanne
Leanne,
When using the comport.txt file, the only thing you need between the braces-{}- and angular brackets-<> is the value you want to send. In you example, that should be the value 20, which should look like this:
<{20}>
Other than that, give everything else you have a try to see if the ttl signal sends.
