Neuroscience Console 500

Neuroscience Console 500 (NC500) is Doric Lenses' latest and most advanced data acquisition system. It's designed to handle multiple experimental techniques at once, with faster sampling rates and higher resolution than any previous version.

NC500 works seamlessly with the new Doric Neuroscience Studio (version 6), which offers an easy-to-use and efficient interface for collecting and visualizing all your data in one place.

• 8 Analog Input + 8 Analog Output Ports
  These ports generate and receive sine waves, supporting demodulated signal recording. They can handle:
  • Up to 4 two-color Basic photometry FMC cubes, or
  • Up to 8 single-color Basic photometry FMC cubes.
  • Up to 2 bundle Fiber Photometry systems
• 32 Digital I/O Ports (8 onboard + 24 expandable)
  These TTL-compatible ports support de-interleaved signal recording and can be used simultaneously for closed-loop experiments with external devices such as:
  • Doric Behavior Camera
  • CamLoop Camera for real-time animal tracking and closed-loop optogenetics
  • Optogenetic light sources (LED and laser drivers)
  • Non-Doric TTL-controlled devices such as operant conditioning chambers and other behavioral equipment
• 2 HDMI Ephys Ports
  High-speed connections supporting:
  • Up to 2 wireless photometry system base station, each supporting 4 wireless headstages (8 heastages in total)
  • Electrophysiology headstages for either EEG, LFP or multi-channel recordings
• 1 HDMI Miniscope Port
  This ports can acquire data from Doric eFocus Miniscopes (either single-color or single-color plus optogenetics miniscope body)

Key benefits of using a NC500 console:

• Precise synchronization: All data streams are synchronized down to the millisecond.
• All-in-one view: Monitor and manage all experimental data in a single software interface
• One file, all data: All modalities are saved together in one HDF5 file for easier analysis.
• Cost-effective: A single console can handle many different experiments.
