Two parallel ports was created by gois
Formerly on EMC2 you had the option to choose in the "Step wizard conf" the option of using two parallel cards.
Today I need to use two parallel cards and this option does not appear in the Linux CNC wizard.
I have the second card with address "0xe010" and pin 17 is a thread that I want to activate using an MDI command can someone help me how?

why need use 0xe010 because all paraller ports use
LPT1: 0x378 (or occasionally 0x3BC) (IRQ 7)
LPT2: 0x278 (IRQ 6)
second port need be 0x278 not other i think.
3th port addres have LPT3: 0x3BC (IRQ 5)
all other addres not working not have.
