Use Data Bits to receive

Assalamo Allykum !

If you want to receive the data from the ADC to PC then use the Data Pins of Parallel Port.

I think you are using 8-bit ADC. If you are using 8-bit ADC then use the Data Pins to receive the data.

But for receiving the data first you have to use the bidirectional property of Parallel Port.

First Makee the ParallelPort BiDirectional in the BIOS.

Make HIGH the 5th Bit of Control(Baseaddress + 2) to receive the data,,,,, and make LOW the 5th Bit of Control(Base Address + 2) to transmit the data.

Before receiving the data make all the oins of the data pina HIGH . (It is important)

Wish you good luck. :!:

If you have any problem then you are free to ask.

Keep remember me in your prayers.
