1.2 Treadmill Stimulus Detection Overview
The Columbus Instruments Treadmill Stimulus Detection is designed to work with the electrical or air-puff
stimulus. The Treadmill Stimulus Detection will monitor the stimuli presented to each channel (lane) and the
calculate various data outputs from them.
Yoked Stimulus allows the stimuli delivered to an odd-numbered channel to be reproduced on the next even-
numbered channel. This ensures that quarantined control subjects receive the same stimuli as the test subjects
within
an experiment session. The Exer 3/6 in “Rat”
mode can support only two channels yoked: 1 & 2. The
“Mouse” mode
can support all six channels: 1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6.
