EMC parallel port map(s)




this is info I snipped from all over the place for my notebook
I used a lot of <TABs> so it may not look right in email but they should
pop back into place if pasted into a normal editor
maps are
first port = step/dir+limit/home switches
second port = E-Stop + misc I/O
option phase stepping on first port
----------------------------------------------------------
The original IBM-PC's Parallel Printer Port had a total of 12 digital outputs 
and 5 digital inputs accessed via 3 consecutive 8-bit ports in the 
processor's 
I/O space. 
8 output pins accessed via the DATA Port 
5 input pins (one inverted, indicated by line over number) accessed via the 
STATUS Port 
4 output pins (three inverted, indicated by line over number) accessed via 
the 
CONTROL Port 
The remaining 8 pins are grounded

new for phase stepping from Fred Proctor's post

To specify this, just put this in your .ini file:

[EMCMOT]
EMCMOT = freqmod.o
STEPPING_TYPE = 1

It only works for freqmod.o (steppermod.o will come once this is
debugged). If you say 0, or leave it out, it uses step-and-direction.

The wiring looks like this, from a comment in emcmot.c:

  Phases are labeled p13 and p19, from Bridgeport stepper motor driver
  pins 13 and 19. The values are converted from step/direction using the
  following table:

  dir   p13  p19

  |  ^   0    0
  |  |   1    0
  +  -   1    1
  |  |   0    1
  v  |   0    0

  The new value of p13 is the logical result of (p19 != dir), and
  the new value of p19 is the logical result of (p13 == dir), where
  + dir is 1 and - dir is 0.
The bits are "wired" onto the parallel port like this:

  MSB                      low byte                             LSB
  -----------------------------------------------------------------
  | p13-3 | p19-3 | p13-2 | p19-2 | p13-1 | p19-1 | p13-0 | p19-0 |
  -----------------------------------------------------------------

  MSB                       hi byte                             LSB
  -----------------------------------------------------------------
  |   x   |   x   |   x   |   x   | p13-5 | p19-5 | p13-4 | p19-4 |
  -----------------------------------------------------------------

  where p19-0 is pin 19 of axis 0, p13-5 is pin 13 of axis 5, etc.

translates to this pinout/port map (outputs only)
lpt	lpt

3	 D1	P13-0	motor-0 phase-B
