User manual

Note that Epoch0 only can go to ‘Off’, ‘Step’ or ‘Begin Loop’, not ‘RsRm Step’, ‘Ramp’ or ‘EndLoop’

because there is no previous step with which to use in the Rs/Rm measurements, you need a Step before

a Ramp to set the initial amplitude, and a loop cannot begin on an EndLoop.

Fig. 4.9.1.5. Setting IC0 Epoch output to ‘Off’, ‘Step’, ‘RsRm Step’, ‘Ramp’, ‘Begin Loop’ or ‘End Loop’ by

clicking on the Off/Step/RsRm/Ramp/BegLoop/EndLoop Epoch Label/Button that raises up when the

mouse cursor is moved over it.

Analog stimulation also has the capability of producing ramps, and generating analog sequential single

trains using BeginLoop/EndLoop constructs (Fig. 4.9.2.5) and analog sequential multiple trains using

Loops within Loops constructs (Fig. 4.9.2.6).

4.9.2 Examples of Sweep Stimulation

In addition to the full stimulation capability of this current version shown in Fig. 4.9.1.1, the following

examples show many simpler but useful sweep stimulation examples.

Fig. 4.9.2.1 shows that pathway independence can be tested by comparing heterosynaptic paired pulse

stimulation with one pulse on S0 and one pulse on S1 with the effects of homosynaptic paired pulse

stimulation (see S0 trace in Fig. 4.9.1.1). Fig. 4.9.2.1 is produced by Pulses on both S0 and S1, and
