Is it possible to connect both the IlVideo and the Ilper to the emu71 ?

I assigned unique ports to each device (60000, 60001 for the Ilvideo, and 60010,60011 for the ILper), and added the Hpilrom.bin file to both ports 1, 2

How do I access the devices?

It seems like there is a device #1 on both ports ?

Is there a port qualifier ?

I'm trying to use the HP Software Developers Handbook, which only has a brief mention of device addressing.

You have to configure the virtual HP-IL interface on Emu71 (on the HPIL configure screen). Basically, each device on the virtual loop connects daisy-chain fashion, with each device pointing to the next device's address for the OUT and that next device pointing back at prior device for the IN. Keep in mind it's a loop so it has to end the same place it begins.

Something like this:

Emu71 IN 60000, OUT 60001
ILPer IN 60001, OUT 60002
ILVideo IN 60002, OUT 60000

Thanks Christoph for confirming.
