However, the computer that has the key plugged in is the only one you can use at any one time. Before I met with them I assumed the key was like a microsoft key that can be installed on multiple computers. Their program package also comes on a single jump drive which they call their "key". Also, if you do the light/dark test the program will allow you to set up this "hidden zone" where if the mouse was in the dark side it will designate that a zone and continue to track the time spent - but if you wanted to track the activity of the mouse (rearing, jumping, resting, distance etc) in the dark section you will need an IR camera. For instance: their monochrome camera can track mice in the water maze, plus maze, and open field but if you do the juv/adult interaction you will need a different kind of camera that allows you to color code each mouse so it can track them separately. The Noldus software is very versatile, however the cameras can be a limiting factor depending on what tests you want to do.
