Exporting

Using the EXPORT AS NEV2-command in the FILE menu the opened file can be saved for future use in a NEV file. If a unit sorting was done the unit information will be stored in this file. In this tutorial we will save the data of our example file in an ASCII file, including the signal wave form of each spike. Click the EXPORT AS ASCII-button in the EXPORT FORMAT part of the GUI and save the data. If you want to save just a list of time stamps with the correlated unit identifier change the ASCII FORMAT to SHORT. Refer to the previous usage- and the appendix section of this manual to learn more about the input and output formats which NEV2lkit supports.

NEV2lkit offers the option to export all files in a directory into NEV2 files. The files have to be in one of the supported import formats. For input files which contain continuously sampled data, NEV2lkit calculates the root-mean-square (RMS) of the signal on each individual input channel, sets a conforming upper and lower threshold (RMS*3.0), extract events with the time base which is defined in the CONFIGURATION part of the NEV2lkit GUI, and saves to NEV2 files.
