output bits on and off.
I am working on a "Parallel Port Brick" that
will have outputs identical to an RCX, but be run from
the PC, for the stationary portions of larger
projects with many more bits ...
Eventually I may do the inputs, too.

| I am currently using my parallel port for the same application. I am not sure how specific your question was, but the output voltage is 5Vdc. However, remember that this is a logic level which means it will not give not give you more than ~20mA ( I (...) (25 years ago, 15-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
