Hardware device connections at BIAC-6 3T (MR750) scanner
BIAC6 3T -- Mach computer
Mach is our primary stimulus presentation computer. It is usually connected to the monitor on the left.
Mach has the following peripheral hardware connected:
- Keyboard and mouse hard-wired connections
- First video output connected to video switch (CPU 1)
- Second monitor video output connected to video switch (CPU 2)
- Stereo sound output to audio switch boxes
- Current Design 8-button serial response device (USB)
- button box mode: “HHSC-2×4-C” response box
- button mode : “HID NAR 12345” (003)
- must check this mode if power is cycled to the interface
- Current Design 2 axis, 2 button joystick ( shared between 2 scanners )
- autoconfigure
- HID Joystick
- USB - Tethyx
- after use switch back to button box with above settings
- Current Design Trackball 2 ( shared between 2 scanners )
- autoconfigure
- HID HHSC-TRK-2 ( track 2 and comp seem to do the exact same thing )
- roll ball around to calibrate
- after use switch back to button box with above settings
- E-Prime SR box (no button box, just scanner trigger) (COM1: 19200 baud, 8 bits, no parity)
- Video switch serial cable on COM2
- Measurement Computing Analog/Digital data acquisition device (USB-1208FS, dev=0, 8 a/d chans)
- Serial cable to Donders on COM3 (e.g. ViewPoint eyetracker or Acknowledge)
- E-Prime dongle (USB)
- Scanner trigger cable connected as input to E-Prime SR box (code=16), and MeasComp analog (ADC3)
- BioPac Respiratory belt signal connected as MeasComp analog input 0 (ADC0), biopac analog ch4
- BioPac Cardiac signal connected as MeasComp analog input 1 (ADC1), biopac analog ( pulse wave ch6 )
- BioPac GSR signal connected as MeasComp analog input 2 (ADC2), biopac analog ch1
- Scanner trigger signal connected as MeasComp analog input 3 (ADC3), biopac analog ch9
- Scanner trigger is also connected to the MCC counter pin (CTR), this would show up as a number increase NOT a positive pulse
BIAC6 3T -- Donders computer
Donders is our accesory computer. It is usually connected to the monitor on the right.
Donders has the following peripheral hardware connected:
- Keyboard and mouse hard-wired
- Video output connected to video switch (CPU 3)
- Stereo sound output to audio switch boxes
- Serial cable to Mach (COM1)
- Scanner trigger cable connected as input to parallel port
- BioPac communication (RJ45?) cable
- Falcon video capture card (internal board)
- Mag Concepts eyetracker camera input (NTSC) to video capture card
- OptoAcoustics digital microphone (USB)
BIAC6 3T -- Other devices
- DVD player, video output connected to video switch (CPU 5)
- DVD player, sound connected to Audio switch (DVD - switch 3)
- Stereo sound jack for I-pod, MP3, etc connected to Audio switch (Aux - switch 4)
