Base station boot firmware version mismatch: 186.173.61453, expected >= 1.0.130 #437

Closed catubc closed 3 years ago

Hello

We're running into this weird firmware version mismatch on startup. I saw JSiegle had done the same a few weeks ago, but there is no posted solution.

There is a error in the HST Module Detected! display that says:

REC_NRESET------------------- FAILED w/ error code: 14

And the printout below.

Any advice on what might be going on? The NI PXIe 1071 chassis has firmware version 1.0.0f0, but I couldn't find any other versions.

As a note, seems SpikeGLX does pass the tests.

Thanks so much, catubc

Do you know which version of SpikeGLX you're using? There is a 1:1 correspondence between SpikeGLX version and basestation firmware version, whereas the Open Ephys Neuropixels-PXI plugin works with multiple firmware versions.

What I believe is happening is that it's correctly detecting the HST module, but since the HST tests are not supported with the most recent firmware version, it ignores that basestation and searches for another one. It then finds the same basestation again (this is a bug we need to fix), but tries to communicate with it via the older API, triggering the version mismatch error.

Hi Yes, this is the prinouts from start up and help menus:

What do you recommend? We would prefer to use open-ephys with our recordings.

Thanks!

Ok, that's the latest version, so it makes sense that the headstage test module doesn't work.

If you plug in an actual probe, does Open Ephys detect it correctly?

catubc commented 3 years ago

Yes, indeed, if we plug in a real probe there are no errors. Thanks for the help!
