Cant get Inpout32.dll to work

[DVDRW]

Hi!

I want to set or read LPT port bits. Placed Inpout32.dll to script folder. Is there something more should i do?

This should send all LPT data bits to high level?

DllCall( "INPOUT32.dll", "int", "out32", "int",0x378, "int", 255 )

When i launch that, nothing happens, my multimeter still shows 0V on parallel port

0x378 address is right because DIK74 software works without problem + my multimeter shows 3,3V.

OS is WinXP Pro SP2

Have a look at this example from suthers.

Yep i started from there.

Set all bits to 1 and read result was all 0s

Tried two different computers

Works for me, I've just run

DllCall( "E:\inpout32.dll", "int", "Out32", "int", 0x378, "int", 255)

and metered the data pins 0-7 as high and then used 0 as the last param and confirmed data pins 0-7 go low.

Thanx got it work!

"INPOUT32.dll" caused the problem. "c:\INPOUT32.dll" worked

I heard that when script location is the same place as file then you wont need write full path. It seems that is not true
