For Unix, the epoch is January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 (UTC)The term seconds since the epoch refers to the total number of elapsed seconds since the epoch, typically excluding leap seconds. Leap seconds are excluded from this total on all POSIX-compliant platforms.millisThe number of milliseconds passed since the LickportArrayController board was powered. This number will overflow (go back to zero), after approximately 50 days.lickport_nSymbolMeaning"L"lickport_n lick detected"A"lickport_n activated"LA" or "AL"lickport_n lick detected and activated""lickport_n neither lick detected nor activatedInstallationhttps://github.com/janelia-pypi/python_setupLinux and Mac OS Xpython3-mvenv~/venvs/lickport_array_interfacesource~/venvs/lickport_array_interface/bin/activate
