using the parallel port in labview

I'm tring to understad how out port.vi and in port.vi function on win NT. I've downloaded parallel_NT.VI on NI's site, but I cannot understand which values I've to pass to out port.vi to set high or low a specific data line. There are "and" "or" operator connected to the output of in port.vi that I would understand what they represent.
Any help will be appreciated.

Regards Perseo.

Hi

Look at this link. Here you will find an example which uses the parallel port als DIO Port.

This is an interesting Link too:

Remember that you have to install an accesshw.dll before you can use the IN/Out Port VI's under Windows NT.

Bye
