3.1.1 Channels
As the electrophysiology console has 4 different channel types. As it shares its basic architecture with our photometry
consoles, the 3 first channel types (
Digital I/O
,
Analog Output
and
Analog Input
) are described in section
. The
Antenna
channels are used to control the fiberless and wireless headstage (section

Electrophysiology channel configuration window
1. The
Channel Types
(Fig.
) are selected on the left side of the window. Selecting the channel icon will display the
parameters of each respective
Channel type
.
2. The
Wireless settings
(Fig.
) are used to select recording and transmission settings.
a) The
Antenna selection
(Fig.
) box shows the currently selected antenna.
b) The
Trigger options
(Fig.
) box allows the selection of trigger parameters for data acquisition.
i. The
Trigger source
can either be
Manual
, or can come from the
Digital I/O
channels.
ii. The
Trigger mode
can be one of two types. In
Triggered
mode, the measurement sequence starts when
a trigger signal is received, and continues even if the trigger signal stops. In
Gated
mode (currently in
