Linear (custom) Layouts / ME-Systems

Select 1 dimensional if you are using any other type of data source, for example, a ME-System
or a custom setup. Define the number of channels provided by your hardware, and specify how
many electrodes (data amplified by the main amplifiers, for example, a MPA and a following
filter amplifier) and how many analog inputs (for example, from a temperature controller
or a microphone) are present. For the electrode channels, the original signal is calculated
automatically according to the gain settings in MC_Rack. Signals on the analog channels
are recorded "as is", with no respect to the gain.

Deselect the option Digital Input Channel, if you do not want to use the digital input channel.
One of the digital input bits can be used for triggering the recording on a TTL output of the
stimulator, for example. A typical configuration of an ME64-System would be 63 electrodes
and a digital channel.
