My Voltmeter computer interface is the parallelport and the pyvcp component 
that I loaded is "my-meter". 
I like to ask 
1. Can this voltmeter be used to measure AC voltage up to 1000VAC
2.Can it also be used to measure DC voltage on another count,
 
If yes. Do I need step-down instrument transformers? Please give me a brief on 
how to go about it. I have a parallel port. I can actually link the Pyvcptp the 
parallel port input pins. What is the maximum voltage that the paralel port can 
handle

I would be glad if someone could help me with the components to put in to make 
my voltmeter on the pyvcp to work and what to do. I would be glad if someone 
could also give me a reference document to read on this. Thank you

It depends on what is your voltmeter's computer interface. I have seen 
voltmeters with serial port, GPIB, USB, VME, etc.

I have a personal project where I use a webcam pointed at a DVM and an image 
analysis program that reads out the
value from the snapshots. As a side effect, it provides  optoisolation :)
