Hello,

I am trying to connect E-Prime with Biopac, and currently using USB-TTL Module.

The device is set at COM3, how do I make E-Prime read or locate this hardware as my input/output?

Thank you!!

I assume that you refer to the USB TTL Module from Black Box ToolKit (BBTK). That device should have come with documentation, which includes specific instructions on how to use the device with E-Prime. If you did not get the documentation then you can download it online. If instead you mean some other type of USB-TTL device (such as sold through Amazon.com), then you should consult the documentation for that device.

Hope that helps,

Thank you, David!

I've already managed to configure this USB-TTL module thru COM/Serial Port.

My other concern is how to send signals from E-Prime to Acqknowledge software.I am not that familiar on which Action to use to send signals to Biopac just like in the image below.

I think that the documentation also covers this and in fact your screenshot shows that you are already on the right path, so please check the documentation again.

Please also note the instructions for initializing (or initialising, since this is a British product) the module.
