Duncan McLean Staff asked 3 months ago When collecting data on a Kinarm Lab and another external system – like EEG – it is necessary to synchronize the data in order to analyze the 2 data sets.
There are a few ways to approach this task. If you are using Dexterit-E 3.9, KST and your Kinarm Lab has a National Instruments 6229 / 2080 board then the 2080 board will output TTL pulses that can be recorded in the external system. Those TTL pulses are described in the Custom Task Programming Guide (which can be found on our support site)
However, if you are making your own custom task, the TDK’s Sync Pulse Generator (TTL) block can be used in any custom task. The TTL block outputs the same signals as described above. You could also use the PCI 6229 DO block to create your own digital outputs. It’s also possible to do both – use our TTL block and output your own custom pulses.
