TIP

This is a device configuration operator. Aggregate configuration operators are recommended in lieu of device configuration operators for interfacing with Open Ephys Onix hardware.

ConfigureNeuropixelsV2e

sink Operator

Configures a NeuropixelsV2e device.

ConfigureNeuropixelsV2e Workflow

Inputs & Outputs

Configures a NeuropixelsV2e device.

This will schedule configuration actions to be applied by a StartAcquisition node prior to data acquisition.

A sequence of ContextTask that holds all configuration actions.

The original sequence with the side effect of an additional configuration action to configure a NeuropixelsV2e device.

Properties

Property Type Description
Enable bool

Gets or sets the device enable state.

If set to true, NeuropixelsV2eData will produce data. If set to false, NeuropixelsV2eData will not produce data.

GainCalibrationFileA string

Gets or sets the path to the gain calibration file for Probe A.

Each probe is linked to a gain calibration file that contains gain adjustments determined by IMEC during factory testing. Electrode voltages are scaled using these values to ensure they can be accurately compared across probes. Therefore, using the correct gain calibration file is mandatory to create standardized recordings.

Calibration files are probe-specific and not interchangeable across probes. Calibration files must contain the serial number of the corresponding probe on their first line of text. If you have lost track of a calibration file for your probe, email IMEC at neuropixels.info@imec.be with the probe serial number to retrieve a new copy.

GainCalibrationFileB string

Gets or sets the path to the gain calibration file for Probe B.

Each probe is linked to a gain calibration file that contains gain adjustments determined by IMEC during factory testing. Electrode voltages are scaled using these values to ensure they can be accurately compared across probes. Therefore, using the correct gain calibration file is mandatory to create standardized recordings.

Calibration files are probe-specific and not interchangeable across probes. Calibration files must contain the serial number of the corresponding probe on their first line of text. If you have lost track of a calibration file for your probe, email IMEC at neuropixels.info@imec.be with the probe serial number to retrieve a new copy.

ProbeConfigurationA NeuropixelsV2QuadShankProbeConfiguration

Gets or sets the electrode configuration for Probe A.

Configuration is accomplished using a GUI to aid in channel selection and relevant configuration properties. To open a probe configuration GUI, select the ellipses next the ProbeConfigurationA variable in the property pane, or double-click ConfigureNeuropixelsV2eHeadstage to configure both probes and the ConfigurePolledBno055 simultaneously.

ProbeConfigurationB NeuropixelsV2QuadShankProbeConfiguration

Gets or sets the electrode configuration for Probe B.

Configuration is accomplished using a GUI to aid in channel selection and relevant configuration properties. To open a probe configuration GUI, select the ellipses next the ProbeConfigurationB variable in the property pane, or double-click ConfigureNeuropixelsV2eHeadstage to configure both probes and the ConfigurePolledBno055 simultaneously.

DeviceName string

Gets or sets a unique device name.

The device name provides a unique, human-readable identifier that is used to link software elements for configuration, control, and data streaming to hardware. For instance, it can be used to link configuration operators to data IO operators within a workflow. This value is usually not set manually, but is assigned in a MultiDeviceFactory to correspond to a fixed address with a piece of hardware such as a headstage. This address is used for software communication.

DeviceAddress uint

Gets or sets the device address.

This is a fully-qualified numerical hardware address of a device within the device table produced by an Open Neuro Interface (ONI) compliant acquisition system. This value is usually not set manually, but is assigned in a MultiDeviceFactory to correspond to a fixed address with a piece of hardware such as a headstage. This address is used for hardware communication.

DeviceType Type

Gets or sets the device identity.

This type provides a device identity to each device within the device table produced by an Open Neuro Interface (ONI) compliant acquisition system.
