Hi,

I am trying to use Bonsai to synchronously record electrophysiological signals through OpenEphys, and video frames from a PointGrey BackFly GigE camera. Ideally, I would like Bonsai to start the OpenEphys acquisition and trigger (by a TTL sent to the camera) each image to be acquired, so that my OpenEphys record gets the electrophy data and the time tags of each acquired image of the video.
I have successfully installed OpenEphys (USB2 board, FrontPanelUSB-DriverOnly-4.4.0) and I can see the recorded signal. I have successfully installed the camera drivers and software (FlyCap2Viewer_2.10.3.169_x64, FlyCapture_2.10.3.169_x64) because I can see the video on the computer (Win-7 pro, 64bit). I have installed Bonsai 2.3.
But when I try to start Bonsai, I get the attached error messages, which seem to complain about missing FTDI drivers (FTD2XX.DLL).
Would anyone have any suggestion how to solve this problem?

Thanks,
Xavier Leinekugel (Neurocentre Magendie, Bordeaux, France)

Hi Xavier, and welcome to the forums!

 

Can you tell us which ephys source node you are using to access the device? The Rhd2000EvalBoard node should not require any FTDI drivers, so I am curious why these messages are showing up.
