• The BFMC system is also equipped with 8 Digital Input/Output (DIO) ports and an DB25 adapter (see pinout

description on Fig. 2.2). These ports are usefull for synchronization and closed-loop experiments with external

devices such as behavior cameras, operant conditioning chambers, video tracking software, and optogenetic

light sources (Fig. 2.1).

• Each BFMC Gen3 has a single sample port (Fig. 2.1). This port doesn't have spectral ﬁltering, all wavelengths

can pass freely through it. The sample port consists of a microscope lens and a ﬁber adapter to image ﬁber

bundle onto the cameras. To accommodate larger ﬁber bundles (up to 2.5 mm of diameter), an SMA receptacle

is used on the sample port. Two types of bundle can be connected to the SMA port: A Fan Out bundle where

each ﬁber has an individual connector at its other end, or a High Density ﬁber that has multiple ﬁber-optic

strands terminated on one side in the same high-density connector pattern as the corresponding High-Density

Fiber-optic Cannula Array. Low autoﬂuorescence materials and black epoxy are used to reduce background

ﬂuorescence and prevent cross-talk between each ﬁber.

• The BFMC Gen3 is also equipped with a power switch and 2 status lights turning ON when the device is powered

on and connected to Doric Neuroscience Studio software (Fig. 2.1).

• The 12 VDC power input port is used to power the BFMC Gen3 (Fig. 2.1).

• The USB-3 port is used to connect the BFMC Gen3 to the computer via a USB-3 cable.
