Python Programming Controlling PC Parallel Port Data Bits by Lewis Loflin If one has installed pyparallel from my page Programming the PC Printer Port in Python we saw the 8 LEDs counting in binary. Unfortunately pyparallel has no function to cut on-off individual bits on the data port. I wrote my own as illustrated below. There are eight functions writeD0(x) - writeD7(x). Simply use "1" to turn on a LED or "0" to turn off. The example will turn on LEDs D0,D1, and D7. writeD0(1) writeD1(1) writeD2(0) writeD3(0) writeD4(0) writeD5(0) writeD6(0) writeD7(1) This is useful for connecting differing pieces of hardware to the data port and controlling them individually. Also see Additional Commands for Py-Parallel. #!/usr/bin/env python # File count.py # http://www.bristolwatch.com/pport/index.htm # By Lewis Loflin - lewis@bvu.net # For use with pyparallel import parallel import time p = parallel.Parallel() # Count 0-255 binary on 8 LEDs for var in range(0,256): p.setData(var) print var time.sleep(.5) #delay 500 mSec. p.setData(0x00) # turn LEDs off print "Good by!" exit
