Stimulation of MEA Electrodes

Click "Stimulate" icon

.

The stimulation feature gives the possibility for voltage driven stimulation of a MEA electrode.
This is useful, for example, if a cardiomyocyte culture did not form a pacemaker. This dialog allows
to connect a stimulus generator STG, and to design the stimulation pulse.

You can connect either one stimulus generator STG with more than one channels, or several STGs
to stimulate the different MEA amplifiers. Define either the channel number from the "Channel"
drop down menu when using one STG, or the devices from the "Device" drop down menu when
using several STGs.
