If you have to ask these questions I have to strongly advise against using anything but the starter kit. The chips will not work in a flying wire setup and you have to know what you are doing if you go for a bread board or make your own PCB.

J1 to J9 are jumpers. And the capacitors are for ...

OK. Couple more questions.

First, under section 2.1 (Product selection matrix) of the datasheet, it says that 'keys' are only available with Warrior 40. Does this mean I need the Warrior 40 to get button feedback? How many led/button pairs can I control with an IO-Warrior 24? IO-Warrior 40?

Second ...

It isn't a plugin api, but more of a method of accessing dll's. So, a dll could be written in C, for example, and could be accessed by Matlab. It can also access activex dll's.

So what, then, would this entail? I would write a dll to access your dll that would access the device?

What about the ...

Some slop in the timing is OK. We don't do reaction time experiments, so timing is not critical. A few ms here or there is not a problem.

I mentioned activex because we run our experiments from within Matlab, and I assumed activex would be the best way to interface.

I am interested in building 4 "response boxes" with the following characteristics. They will have 4 buttons and 4 leds. The buttons must be 'read' from an activex dll, and the leds must be turned on and off from the dll too. I would also need to be able to control 2 of them at the same time from 1 ...
