M100

I want to make an M100 function to put a 1 or a 0 on a physical pin of the parallel port

I put into the file

halcmd setp parport.0.pin-09-out-fake TRUE

exit 0.

But don't work. !!

what is my mistake ? The file works!!.

The examples in the documents have been tested and work. Not sure what parallel port pin would have the word fake in it.

I think a SIM file has fake pins

I did find a file sim/axis/panelui-demo/sim_hardware.hal that uses fake
net fake-xstep => parport.0.pin-02-out-fake

and it looks like sim/gscreen/spartan/sim_hardware.hal is the same file but that's the only two I could find.
