int16

Chip channel

SmartLink channel number (0-31)

int16

Board stream

SmartBox

™

data stream (0-7); each data stream supports up to 32 channels.

Each SmartLink64 headstage uses two data streams. Each SmartLink16
headstage uses one entire data stream.

int16

Spike Scope voltage trigger mode

0: trigger on digital input
1: trigger on voltage threshold

int16

Spike Scope voltage threshold

Spike voltage threshold (units: microvolts)

int16

Spike Scope digital trigger channel

SmartBox

™

digital input channel used for spike trigger (0-15)

int16

Spike Scope digital edge polarity

0: trigger on digital falling edge
1: trigger on digital rising edge

int16

Electrode impedance magnitude

Last measured impedance magnitude (units: Ohms)

int16

Electrode impedance phase

Last measured impedance phase (units: degrees)

Even non-amplifier channels will contain fields for Spike Scope trigger parameters and electrode impedance data, but these fields will contain default
values that may be ignored.

The Spike Scope feature in the GUI is used only to aid in viewing neural spikes; the software saves full waveforms, not just spikes. However, the us-
er-specified thresholds set in the Spike Scope are saved for each channel, so it would be relatively easy to write a script to isolate action potentials
based on these thresholds (e.g., for compressing saved data files after recording).

This concludes the Standard Intan RHD2000 Header contents. Typical headers consume very little disk space (a few KB) even for large numbers of en-
abled channels.
