Changing photodiode settings
September 12, 2024 09:16PM
We are interested in flashing the photodiode during the first two frames and last two frames of every stimulus. Can we do this with the in-built photodiode function or do we have to manually make our own photodiode to do this?

Thanks,

Mitchell

The built-in photodiode trigger is not that much flexible. It is toggled when toggleobject() is called in Timing Script v1 or run_scene() is called in Timing Script v2. In Timing Script v2, it can also be toggled every frame or when an eventcode is sent out within a scene, by including the PhotoDiode adapter to the scene.

I guess you can try some manual method, if you really want to flash the trigger as you described, but I suggest thinking twice if it is truly necessary.
