TriggerSync Features

Eight Channel Input Recording: Can record up to eight different input signals, all of which can be synchronized with experiments run in concert with Prairie View.

Eight Channel Signal Outputs: User-customizable outputs to provide auxiliary equipment with triggers and/or voltage signals for sample stimulation. Several different output types are available such as: voltage ramps, I/V protocols, pulse trains or custom waveforms.

Four Channel Oscilloscope: Integrated oscilloscope for measuring the voltage inputs from up to four channels.

Seal Test: Integrated measuring tool for analyzing the difference in resistivity between an output and an input. This is useful to test the connectivity of patches.

Uncaging Calibration: A semi-automated process for calibrating the pointing position of the uncaging galvanometers to overlay with the imaging galvanometers. This allows for very precise uncaging/burning of a sample.

Mark Points: Allows the user to mark points on the specimen for calcium uncaging or site-specific photobleaching. Points can be set up in a line, random points or a grid of points (functional mapping).

Triggering Options: User-selectable triggering options allowing for TriggerSync to act as master or slave to auxiliary equipment. This is commonly used in conjunction with specimen stimulators or pipette flow controls.

File Format Outputs: User-selectable file formats for saving TriggerSync data: TriggerSync, Igor or Excel spreadsheet file format.
