  Rob,

  no idea how to code, maybe I will have to learn some if I must, do you
already have a program written to for the w/ 5451 to interface w/

  Falcon?



  Thanks

    Ok folks.I've uploaded (circuit.jpg) the circuit diagram for the 5451
LED driver to the ftp site.  In a single chip configuration, the chip
connects to pins 2,3 and 18 of the parallel printer port.  As always, please
be careful in working with ports on your PC.  If anyone needs help with the
code portion, I can only help if you're interested in VB.  Also, my code
requires the use of a 3rd party driver called VBIO (it's free, and I believe
I have a copy somewhere as well).  When I last played with the code, I was
running a Win98SE PC, so I haven't tested on any other OS.



    Rob
