Hello I am new to the BCI world and am trying to start EEG scanning. I have setup all required hardware and software to instructions.

Testing Software with synthetic algorithm and works fine.

I am having problems with the headset connecting to the software.

 

I activate the USB and headset in the correct order. And when it comes to software, everything launches perfectly, I select my data source, USB etc then press START SYSTEM…

 

This is when nothing happens? The GUI application becomes un-responsive and no data is being seen in the greyAPP? I can not even press any other options on the GUI app.


Running Mac OS Sierra

    Have you tried running the GUI as 'root'? For example, using the 'sudo' command.

  • yes I am running it as root

    sudo ./OpenBCI_GUI 

    although I did have to change the permissions of the /dev/ttyUSB0 to get the Python library to connect ( as per the other forum thread )

    thx!
