Problem with trigger interface
Posted: Wed May 04, 2022 6:52 am
Hi Biosemi folks,
First of all, thank you for making such a fantastic product. Working with the EEG system and ActiView is usually a breeze. Unfortunately, some problems crept up last week that I find difficult to resolve.
The problem:
The problem is that the trigger channel on our receiver computer shows a constant signal in channel 3 and does not let any other triggers through. The signal stops when I shut down the stimulus computer but appears again when the stimulus computer is booting up.
What I tried already:
- checked all of the cables: all fine and the LEDs indicate that the system is working
- replaced the parallel port on the stimulus computer: did not make a difference
- swap stimulus and receiver computers (they are identical in our setup): did not make a difference
The system:
- ActiView 9.02
- Windows 10 Enterprise
- BioSemi system purchased before 2016
- Stimulus computer with a parallel port
- BioSemi receiver with a parallel port input and USB output
I'd be grateful for your suggestions on how to resolve the issue.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Joe
