[Logic] ea4tx rotor card with Byterunner board

What are you using on LPT1?

If it's a printer... move it to LPT2 freeing up LPT1...

LPT ports are a problem as the implementation is not "standard" like the COM
ports, so each driver is unique, and many will NOT work with programs that
try to control them programmatically.

Subject: [Logic] ea4tx rotor card with Byterunner board

Hello All,

Although not specifically Logic related - I am wondering if anyone is using
the ea4tx rotor control card in conjunction with the byterunner serial /
parallel port card.

The reason I ask here is that I know a number of Logic users are running the
Byte Runner board (I purchased it some time ago via a recommendation from
this reflector).

Basically I have both a Wavenode power module and the ea4tx rotor card both
of which runoff an LPT port. I have had no luck in getting either the ea4tx
card or the Wavenode pwr module operating off the Byte Runner card (ie via
LPT2). Both will run OK off the onboard LPT1. Cant use a conventional LPT
switch as my station is remote and I cant afford to have my man servant
standing down there all day waiting for the command to flick the switch (he
is to busy polishing my Rolls Royce in any event)!!.

Would also be interested in any recommendations for plug in LPT cards that
may solve my problem.

Thanking You

Paul (vk3ajj)
