Headstage64OpticalStimulatorTrigger

sink Operator

Trigger a headstage-64 onboard optical stimulus sequencer.

This data IO operator must be linked to an appropriate configuration, such as a ConfigureHeadstage64OpticalStimulator, using a shared DeviceName. Headstage-64's onboard optical stimulator can be used to drive current through laser diodes or LEDs connected to two contacts on the probe connector on the bottom of the headstage or the corresponding contacts on a compatible electrode interface board.

Properties

Property Type Description
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.
