Hi..
yes i need a very simple request...
Now i theoritically understood the parallel port of the PC and how it works. i still need a practical example so i can see if i really understood it.
what i want is a simple example. Like i want to connect 8 LEDs to the port and just turn them ON and OFF by sending the binary data through the parallel port...
im using windows XP...
what things should i do...
I KNOW NOTHING.. ABSOLUTLY NOTHING...
what r the components i need?
the parallel port is a female connecter.. how can i connect the LEDs to it?
what r the values of the resistors i should use?
is the prallel port current that is sent enough to turn them on?
do i need an external votlage source?
how should i connect the LEDs to the parallel port?
what code should i use to do that? ( i know C/C++/VB )
.
.

plz help me..
if anyone knows links wer i can find all the infos.. plz tell me..
