Its possible to control the G-Lock from the parallel port.  If one has the
lastest software, the docs or readme file on the distribution disk, describes
how to use this option.

From what I understand, the Neptun genlock is pretty good.  Certainly better
than the G-Lock.  I haven't witnessed its performance, as its not available
here in the U.S.

A Neptun EX is included with MM400.
