Publisher review:DioPrint - Using the DIO Object and parallel port adaptor to emulate the Centronics Protocol to drive a printer This demo illustrates how you use MATLAB and the Data Acquisition Toolbox to emulate the Centronics protocol commonly used to communicate with parallel port devices.The Centronics protocol is a set of rules that dictate the exchange of signals between a host and client device. This protocol ensures that information is passed in a correct and timely manner. With the Data Acquisition Toolbox providing the connectivity layer to the digital device and MATLAB serving as an environment to program the Centronics logic model, it is possible to develop an application that can take a simple string and output it to the parallel port. An accompanied article discusses the logic model behind the Centronics protocol, using the Data Acquisition Toolbox and its new parallel port adaptor and the construction of the graphical user interface (GUI) to drive the demo application, dioprint. Requirements: · MATLAB Release: R13 · Data Acquisition Toolbox
