ticable_set_io_address Function

cabl_int.h

void ticable_set_io_address(unsigned int address)

Parameters

address
a valid I/O address to use.


Summary

Set the I/O address to use for link cable access.

Description

Be careful: an incorrect value can provoke strange behaviour, mouse lockup or even worse ! The address parameter contains a valid I/O port address. It can be 0x378 for the first parallel port (LPT1 or /dev/lp0), or 0x3f8 (COM1), or ... Usually, this field is left to 0 unless you specify USER_PORT as an abstract port to use. Indeed, the device is automatically determined by library. The change will come into effect on the next call to @ticable_set_cable@. Note: if you need to change more than one link cable parameter at a time, you should consider the @ticable_set_param@ function.
