Presentation
For an extended manual on Presentation software, see Neurobs help page, this page is only for NatMEG specific configurations.
Some tips and tricks are available in Presentation-script-tips
Example scripts: * Resting state paradigm * Auditory oddball paradigm
Setting up the response buttons
- Add the input ports you want to your experiment.
You need an input port which is port6 for the fORP-buttons response pads. Select the Response Device and configure the port settings.
- Add output ports
Here port0 is Button pad 1 and port4 is Button pad 2
- Add response buttons
Here you need to add active buttons to the experiment, both from the Button pads and from the keyboard, should you need it.
