I want to send a small pulse wave (or just a number 1) via the Parallel Port on my PC or the latest intel iMac via usb to parallel adaptor.

I know there's a object like 'serial', but is there the same kind of object for Parallel Port?

Hi
I want to send a small pulse wave (or just a number 1) via the Parallel Port on my PC or the latest intel iMac via usb to parallel adaptor.
I know there's a object like 'serial', but is there the same kind of object for Parallel Port?
Please help me.

I'm looking for the same! and i found it at Maxobjects.com

If someone has the object, please send it to here as an attachment, so we can download it!

Sory about using your post to re-ask for the object!

I installed it to my PC,but when I used help for your 'staalport' object, suddenly max crushed, and I don't know how to use.

Where should I put staalport.help file? Is it the same directory as staal.mxe itself?

You have to install the driver first which you can find in the /drv 

folder. Check the readme (it's referring to the cvin external, but same 

story here), there it says how to istall the driver. Then it should work.

I'm starting to get the impression that there is no existing way to get the 

time tags from SDIF files as a set of numbers in Max. Once i confirm this 

to a reasonable degree of certainty, i'm thinking about trying to program a 

custom external object to accomplish this task, if nobody who already is 

experienced in programming externals is interested in creating such an 

object or in the project that i want to use it for (description of this

I took a class in c++ programming years ago, and my friend who's a 

programmer is willing to help me a bit with this project if i wind up having 

to do it... when i described what i want this program to do, she said that 

it shouldn't be too complicated. Can anyone recommend a resource/guide/info 

about how to program externals, and/or some guides that can help me get up 

to speed in c/c++ or java (or whatever languages that externals can be 

programmed in) enough to program the simple external that i described above?

I found cyboxLPT.sys, but I couldnt find the readme file. 

And what is the cyboxLPT.exe for ? There seems no prescription file in the 'drv' directory.

It seems the readme is missing in the zip... okay, here's the

2. Select “Add/Troubleshoot a Device”.

4. Select “No, I Want to Select the Hardware from a list”.

5. Select “Audio-, Video and Game controller” and then click Next.

It seems the readme is missing in the zip... okay, here's the 
instruction how to install the driver:

1. Double-click the “Add/Remove Hardware Wizard” applet in Control Panel.
2. Select “Add/Troubleshoot a Device”.
3. Select “Add a new device”.
4. Select “No, I Want to Select the Hardware from a list”.
5. Select “Audio-, Video and Game controller” and then click Next.
6. Click “Have Disk” and point to the directory that contains 
cvboxLPT.inf file.

The driver works fine in XP Pro but do not work in XP 64Bit edition!

No idea, sorry. - I made my own, would probably take making a new one 

for 64bit... If you sponsor me a machine with XP64 on it I'd probably do

Though I installed the driver the way you said, staalport help didn't work, and when I clicked held for staalport, max crushed again. There seems some problem but I don't know what it is.

Can you upload staalport help as a patch file? without reading help file I really don't know how to use it.

1. Copy cvboxLPT.sys to c:windowsSystem32Drivers

2. Right-click on cvboxLPT.inf and choose install

3. same for Kopie von cvboxLPT.inf (don't know if it's needed)

4. (Click-Click) on cvboxLPT.exe and press start

5. Copy staalport.mxe to C:Program FilesCommon FilesCycling '74externals

note. You have allways to perform step 4 & 4.1 to use the driver!

It's not neede, just abackup copy (i.e. old version)...

Alternatively you could set the drivers start method in control pannel 

to 'automatic' or something (don't know exactly how they call it on

Alternatively you could set the drivers start method in control pannel 
to 'automatic' or something (don't know exactly how they call it on 
English Windows).

I can't find the staalport object anywhere, it seems the website is not working anymore.
