Fail to send a TTL signal due to port number

Send me an email (service @ empirisoft.com) and I'll send you back a utility for testing TTL ports above 32k.

Note though that v2012 is required for this--the fix won't work on earlier versions (not intentional, it's a function of some third party software that needed to be updated in addition to our own code). In any case, the new IOTest.exe utility (v2012.4.135) should be able to work with IO ports with address values up to 65535 (DEC, i.e., HEX FFFF). If you contact John (via service @ empirisoft.com, you can get the new IOTest.exe utility now (as of June 20, 2012) to see if it works on your system. But do note that DirectRT v2012 will need to be installed. This new version of the IOTest.exe file simply replaces the existing version in the DirectRT\utilities\TTL folder.

Later this week, the new address functionality will be added to the default setup files of DirectRT and MediaLab posted on the main download page. We're doing it this way to ensure it works first via the test utility before we make the same changes in the code of the main programs (i.e., MediaLab and DirectRT).

Hope that helps,
Blair

For those who can't receive .zip files in their email, here's a copy.

Was this ever resolved? I am trying to send a TTL signal from port 53264 using Media Lab 2012 and it doesn't seem to respond. When I use the I/O utility it works just great.
