MazeSoft-4 is a program designed for showing the subject position on a four arms radial maze, using a digital I/O card installed in the PC-Computer to ensure communication between both devices. MazeSoft-4 is designed for running only under Windows95®, Windows98® or Windows Millenium®. |  | |||||||||
 | This software ensures the control of the animal's position in the maze, and allows loading up to three specific windows which show additional information of the experiment:  The total elapsed time in a trial The current position of the animal The permanence time in a section of the maze. This information is also showed in numeric format, and can be saved in files for further analysis purposes. | |||||||||
The LE 3846 Controlling Unit allows, jointly with the software MAZESOFT-4) for the control of up to two LE 846/LE 848 Mazes and for the programming of the lenght of the trial. A trial goes on in the controlling system independently of each maze, as soon as an animal is detected into it. | ||||||||||
The LE 3846 track the current animal position, according to the 9 sectors (see fig. left) of the maze. Once the trial is over, the following information is provided: This information is totalised separately for "open / closed" (without / with walls, respectively) arms. Experimental data is permanently stored and battery fed: its integrity is thus guaranteed regardless of the main supply. |  | |||||||||
