Parallel Port Map dialog box

This dialog box allows you to specify the parallel port addresses used by CCDSoft to communicate with parallel port CCD cameras (ST-7 and ST-8).

 

LPT1

Displays the base address for the first parallel port.

 

LPT2

Displays the base address for the second parallel port.

 

LPT3

Displays the base address for the third parallel port.

 

All base addresses are displayed in hexadecimal format.
