fORP Interface
Model No: FIU-005
| The fORP Electronic Interface supports all of our handheld units and all psychometric software packages, so it can be shared easily by users with differing platforms. It is the heart of the fORP system, transmitting and receiving the optical signals and producing the computer outputs. There is a trigger input for synchronizing computer response data with MRI or MEG data. |

fORP: Switch Positions and Programs
Our response devices are designed to work with all the software available today for stimulus presentation and response measuring.
Please tell us if you think you are using a package that does not seem to be supported.
Program choices are made by way of an eight position switch on the
interface unit. Each interface option (USB, Serial, or TTL) has up to
8 different output formats, according to this table.
