Appendix I: Properly Configuring LPT Port 
When trying to solve any communications issue, it is convenient to program the POWERDOWN 
bit to confirm high/low current draw of the evaluation board or the PLL_MUX between “Logic 
Low” and “Logic High” LD output to confirm successful communications. 
 
LPT Driver Loading 
The parallel port must be configured for proper operation.  To confirm that the LPT port driver is 
successfully loading click “LPT/USB”  “Check LPT Port.”   If the driver properly loads then 
the following message is displayed: 
 
 
Figure 23 - Successfully Opened LPT Driver 
 
Successful loading of LPT driver does not mean LPT communications in CodeLoader are setup 
properly.  The proper LPT port must be selected and the LPT port must not be in an improper 
mode

 
The PC must be rebooted after install for LPT support to work properly. 
 
Correct LPT Port/Address 
To determine the correct LPT port in Windows, open the device manager (On Windows XP, 
Start  Settings  Control Panel  System  Hardware Tab  Device Manager) and check 
the LPT port under the Ports (COM & LPT) node of the tree.  It can be helpful to confirm that 
the LPT port is mapped to the expected port address, for instance to confirm that LPT1 is really 
mapped to address 0x378.  This can be checked by viewing the properties of the LPT1 port and 
viewing resources tab to verify that the I/O Range starts at 0x378.  CodeLoader expects the a 
traditional port mapping: 
Port 
Address 
LPT1 
0x378 
LPT2 
0x278 
LPT3 
0x3BC 
 
If a non-standard address is used, use the “Other” port address in CodeLoader and type in the 
port address in hexadecimal.  It is possible to change the port address in the computer‟s BIOS 
settings.  The port address is set in CodeLoader at the Port Setup tab as shown in Figure 24.
