Description
We are currently using OpenEphys to collect neuropixels data, and have the Neuropix-PXI source module working well. However, we are now trying to integrate our behavior system by using the NIDAQmx source module in combination with the NI digital I/O module NI-6521 (that has 8 digital input channels that will be receiving digital TTL inputs). The NIDAQmx source module loads and shows the name of the module on the right as it should. The 8 channels also show up in green. It doesn’t seem however that the source module is currently reading any input from the channel(s) we have set up receiving small currents. Whenever we try and start a session with this module either the GUI crashes (which is most of the time) or if it does keep running (which only seems to happen if the Neuropix module is already running), then all the data files in the NIDAQmx folder come back empty. I have run a range of checks on all the hardware and the I/O module and that all seems to be working so far. The main error message in the debug console seems to be: ‘specified operation cannot be performed when there are no devices in the task’. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be much appreciated!
