NIC2.0 is the new and redesigned version of the former Neuroelectrics Instrument Controller (NIC) application.

With a modern and intuitive interface, NIC2.0 allows computers to interact and control Neuroelectrics devices, such as Enobio 8 and Starstim 32. NIC2.0 is equipped with basic and advanced modes to design and monitor any experiment involving electroencephalography (EEG) and/or non invasive brain stimulation with transcranial current stimulation (tCS).

NIC2.0 is compatible with both Windows and Mac OS computers. Use the following hyperlinks to have access to the NIC User Manual and respective installation files:

- | NIC User Manual v2.0

- | NIC2.0 Installation Files

NIC2.0 is not compatible with out-dated devices. Check the firmware version of your device and proceed accordingly:

A) Firmware greater or equal to 1.2.51: Your device requires no upgrade – it is fully compatible with NIC2.0. Download NIC2.0 and start using it!

B) Firmware inferior to 1.2.51, and greater or equal to 1.2.30: Your device requires a firmware update to become compatible with NIC2.0. Such update can be remotely performed. Contact NE Support (support(at)neuroelectrics.com) to schedule a session to remotely update your device.

C) Firmware inferior to 1.2.30, and greater or equal to 1.2.07: Your device requires a firmware update to become compatible with NIC2.0 Such update must be done at Neuroelectrics manufacturing site. Contact NE Support (support(at)neuroelectrics.com) to manage the device shipment and upgrade process.

D) Firmware inferior to 1.2.07: The device hardware must be upgraded to become compatible with NIC2.0. Contact NE Sales (sales(at)neuroelectrics.com) to request a device upgrade.
