180 is a boatload! i used the 72 i/o ( 3x8255) thai pci but it was pooh poohed here despite it works for me with pull downs. from futurlec
maybe he could use a plc, maybe automation direct aka Toyo as most i/o wont need realtime, i think ( underline!) that, at most, 'wait till completed' code would suffice instead of realtime my2c tomp btw i just revieved 4 dual parport 9865 boards, still testing... seems to need pulls also got an 8 slot pci mobo? ;-) there's other taiwan boards besides Advantech you can recognize them without speaking Chinese but you gotta trawl the websites and tell google you're from taiwan ;-) lie lie lie!
