    I have followed all the instructions to set up the software for ChiBio using my BeagleBone Black. However, when I execute cb.sh the program says Multiplexer Comms have failed, evidently because there is no reactor connected. Is there any way I can bypass this and have a look at the software without the hardware?

    Thanks!

    Hi Nishant,
    Do you not have any reactor at all?
    You should be able to load the software without having a reactor involved if you disable all the “Initialise” functions in the software – these are responsible for checking reactors are there and setting default values for all the hardware.
    If you do have a reactor, but it isn’t connecting properly and blaming the Multiplexer, there may be a fault with the PCB attached to the Beaglebone Black. This is a hardware issue with some boards – Labmaker should be able to fix it for you.

    Hi Harrison,

    Thanks for the prompt response. I don’t currently have a reactor – I am using a non-customised BBB which I had. I just wanted to navigate through the software and web UI a bit before purchasing ChiBio from Labmaker. I was able to do precisely that, thanks!
