Hello,
After reading all the comments about TTL output etc...
I end up with a question that "might" solve most of the issue.
In the FED3.0 the PCB Board is easilly accessible and so soldering a small cable on the left poke/right poke or even pellet pin should be easy right?
However that would means dropping the voltage. While for a TTL it can be increase using another ARDUINO located outside the animal cage that receive "small voltage" and in return send a TTL (3.3/5v) To the photometry (as an example).
I am just wondering if it can affect the way the script count right or left poke?
The soldering would be at this level (see image) an different pins for each output?
