- Options
- filepath (
string
): The directory of the stimulus file.
- filename (
string
): The stimulus file.
- sigstdev (
number
): The standard deviation of the stimulus.
- pause (
number
, ms): Pause between successive stimuli.
- contrast (
number
, %): Contrast for one standard deviation of the stimulus.
- repeats (
integer
): Number of stimulus repetitions (0: infinite).
- binwidth (
number
, ms): Width of the bins used for estimating the firing rate.
- before (
number
, ms): Spikes recorded before stimulus.
- after (
number
, ms): Spikes recorded after stimulus.
- splitfiles (
boolean
): Each stimulus in extra file.
- joinspikes (
boolean
): Add spike trains to stimulus amplitude file.
- Files
- stimspikes#.dat : the spikes elicited by each stimulus of trace #.
- stimnerveampl.dat : the nerve potential elicited b each stimulus.
- stimampl.dat : each stimulus trial.
- stimrate.dat : the firing rate for each stimulus.
- Plots
- Firing Rate: Spikes (red) and firing rate (yellow).
- Stimulus: The stimuli (darkgreen, the most recent one green).
- Requirements
- Transdermal EOD recording (
EODTrace2
) and events (EODEvents2
).
- One or more spike events (
SpikeEvents
[*]) or nerve recordings (NerveTrace1
