What is the status on the bci2000 certification program? The .exe and the wiki are clearly written for very different versions. I just checked out the most recent source code, and there's now some sort of GUI which appears to ignore the .ini files and require you to hand-define each task... admittedly you can load parameter files with a little work, but the global source button doesn't work (nor do some of the others in the GUI).

The binary downloads seem to require a certain version of Borland to be installed (running the .exe fails with "can't find _____.dll" errors).

The wiki also mentions soldering a connector for one of the digital inputs on the amp, but never says what it should be plugged into.

Is there a revision which I could use that matches the documentation? Or could someone update the documentation?

Hello,
I am the author of the program. The documentation definitely needs updating. I am working on writing my dissertation and defending in the next few weeks, so I am not sure that I have time to devote to this right now. Everything does work right now, since it is going into my thesis, but it really needs to be organized into a single coherent package, i.e., I know how to use it, but I'm not sure if anyone else could right now. So, after I defend, or possibly even next week after I am finished writing, I can organize all of this into something other people can use.

I appreciate the quick reply. If it's at all possible to write up a quick draft (even if it's not ready for the wiki yet) at some point in the next two weeks, that would be great. We bought a computer and we'd like to certify it before the return period runs out... we're hoping to buy several more like it.

Hope your dissertation went well. Have you been able to find some time to work on this?

Hi,

Adam already updated the documentation for the certification procedure on the wiki. Please find it here:

Is there a working version of the certification program?

The current binaries crash with a "missing stlpmt45.dll" error (confirmed on two computers).

The current source crashes with a "P3SpellerTask::Initialize: unhandled exception EInvalidOp, terminating Application module" and "SignalSource: Application dropped connection unexpectedly" (two computers).

Now, both computers are still using the drivers for a g.USBamp v2 (as opposed to the v3 that just came out), mainly because we have only v2 amps. So that could be part of the issue (there is a preflight warning about that).

Is there a known-good version of the certification program?

Thanks,

Dave

Dave,
I am in China until next week, but at that point I will send you a working version. We are almost finished wrapping up version 3 of BCI2000, and the certification program has been updated extensively since V2. I will put something together for you once I am sure that it is working correctly.
Thanks!
Adam

Thank you, Adam, I look forward to it.

Hey,
I am still working on getting the programs working with the updated compilers, so it will be another day or so before I can send them.
Adam
