The pair provides active and inactive lever positions for discrimination protocols.

What is the difference between mouse and rat levers?
Mouse levers are 1 cm wide and rat levers are 1.6 cm wide, scaled to the species paw size for reliable operant responding.
Can I use nose pokes instead of levers?
Yes. The Nose Poke Sensors module mounts in the same positions and serves as an alternative response mechanism.
