Send TTLs via (Virtual) Serial Port? (case 26512)

[ltenbrinke]

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.
