Thanks for that. I think I will put the computer in the front panel and 7i76 in the back control box with rest of stuff. So I'll need a 4-5 meter parallel port cable to connect between the two. Has anyone made their own DB25 parallel port cables? It doesn't sound too hard. Just need some suitable cable and the plugs
