Stimulus
duration=1000ms: Duration of signal (number)pause=1000ms: Pause between signals (number)freqsel=relative to EOD: Stimulus frequency is (string)deltaf=5Hz: Delta f (beat frequency) (number)contrast=20%: Contrast (number)repeats=6: Repeats (integer)am=true: Amplitude modulation (boolean)sinewave=true: Use sine wave (boolean)ampl=0.0: Relative amplitude of harmonics (string)phase=0.0: Phase of harmonics (string)contrastsel=fundamental: Contrast is (string)
Analysis
skip=0.5Periods: Skip (number)ratebins=10: Number of bins for firing rate (integer)before=0ms: Spikes recorded before stimulus (number)after=0ms: Spikes recorded after stimulus (number)adjust=true: Adjust input gain? (boolean)
Harmonics can be defined by ampl and phase. Enter the relative amplitude and the corresponding phase of each harmonic as comma separated values.

- Plots
- Firing Rate: Spikes (red) and cyclic firing rate (yellow) for each SAM cycle.
- SAM: Each period of the SAM stimulus (darkgreen). Last period green.
- Requirements
- Transdermal EOD recording (
EODTrace2) and events (EODEvents2).
- Recording of the stimulus events (
SignalEvents1) if non AM stimuli are used.
- One or more spike events (
SpikeEvents[*]) or nerve recordings (NerveTrace1).
