Hi!
please read the documentation for your board and find out that the
serial ports are called McBSP and you can connect to them via on of the
extension ports. I think J1 or something.
The McBSP ist not like RS-232. You will need MAX232 to interface.
If you even could not find the connector, you will have troubles
programming the McBSP i believe. Anyway, you should read spra633b then.
For 6713 there was a driver development kit including a nifty serial
port driver for the DSP/BIOS operating system.
When i startet with the dsp6713, i was a dsp-rookie, and it took me 2
weeks to connect a bluetooth device with a rs-232 serial port and
transfer data.
I do not know anything about your hpi parallel port.
ciao, Sven
