Hello,
I am new here and I hope I can explain this problem I am having well.
Presently, I am trying to set up the Bpod so that 4 ports receive inputs from 4 separate lickports. The Bpod is only able to register ports 1 - 3, but does not register ports 4 - 8 as being connected. I have tried 2 separate Bpods and they each have the same problem. I have tried 2 separate lickport sensors and they each have the same problem. I have tried to see if moving the ethernet cables to ports 5, 6, 7, and 8 and changing the protocol so that those ports are where the lick inputs would be received to see if that would effect the registering of the lickports, and when I do that none of the lickports register. When I set the Bpod console to emulator mode, all of the lickports register when I press the POK button, however when I reconnect to the Bpod, it remains that only ports 1-3 register when I press the POK buttons. Finally, I tried running a completely different protocol that only utilizes one of the ports only ports 1-3 show to be active on the console.
I do not know if this is a software or hardware issue, as I have both the firmware and the software updated to the newest version. I am using the Bpod State Machine r1.
I am very grateful for any help.
