9. Insert the power key into its receptacle.

10. Set the power switch to ON.

11. Connect the

USB-A/USB-B cable

between the

LISER

TM

& LED/LD Light Source

and the computer.

12. Install the

Doric Neuroscience Studio

on the computer. Double-click on the DoricNeuroscienceStudioSetup_vX.X.exe

file located on the Doric USB memory stick supplied with the

LISER

TM

& LED/LD Light Source

and follow the

on-screen instructions (help is also available in the

Doric Neuroscience Studio User Manual

, which can be

downloaded on our

Website

section

SUPPORT

).

13. If needed, connect an external device to the

LISER

TM

& LED/LD Light Source

by using one of the input BNC

port. In this configuration, the driver will wait the signal from another device, consequently the light source will

be triggered. To follow an external device, select the external TTL or the external analog mode for the desired

channel (see section

4.1.2

).

14. If needed, connect a data acquisition system or an external device to the

LISER

TM

& LED/LD Light Source

by using

the output BNC port of the desired channel. A data acquisition system enables the viewing and the recording

of the signal generated by an external device connected to the light source. The output BNC can also be used

to connect an external device that will be triggered by the light source.
