General Issues

• Ho gives continuous error ma -4 device rx timed-out not response.
  • It might be related to receiver package. Occasion ones should be fine. Continuous ones should be considered and restart fs. Via vdesk try to bring back the antenna to the schedule. Sometimes have to try drvon for 5 min! Brett and Jamie will investigate this.
• Ho sometimes has a problem with DIMino running. For Ho setup, if there is a problem with DIMino, please check whether Jive5ab or other programs are running or not.
• If you need to upload scripts for an experiment, please let Jamie know about them.
• Jamie will be on parental leave from next week for one month.
