Hi Walter, Thank you for your response, It was helpful. I have minicircuit ZX36-31a-pps+ attenuator ( https://www.minicircuits.com/appdoc/AN70-004.html ) with its cable that has 25 pin D sub adaptor to interface with PC. Since, my Laptop does not have this port, I bought parallel port to USB convertor. It make sense with what you said. I havnt work with such device before requiring 6 bit data to control its state. The software provided by minicircuit does not identify device connection either. I am planing to give control signal with arduino now. I guess that would be easier. Thanks

Are you able to run the "Mini-Circuits" digital attenuator control program to configure the parallel port address?

I believe that I have read that this is a matter of having used the incorrect cable. There are two different possible cables to connect to parallel ports, and I gather that some companies are not very careful about their labeling.
