Scheduled service maintenance on November 22


On Friday, November 22, 2024, between 06:00 CET and 18:00 CET, GIN services will undergo planned maintenance. Extended service interruptions should be expected. We will try to keep downtimes to a minimum, but recommend that users avoid critical tasks, large data uploads, or DOI requests during this time.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

  1. function splitNSxNTrode
  2. % splitNSxNTrode
  3. %
  4. % Opens and splits an NSx file based on its NTrode groups. It depends on
  5. % openCCF file.
  6. %
  7. % Use splitNSxNTrode
  8. %
  9. % This function does not take any inputs.
  10. %
  11. % Example 1:
  12. % splitNSxNTrode;
  13. %
  14. % In the example above, the user will be prompted to select a CCF file
  15. % first. The CCF contains the ntrode grouping infromation. Then the user
  16. % will be prompted to select a NSx file. The script will then split the
  17. % NSx file into smaller NSx files containing channels in given ntrode
  18. % groups. For example, if ntrode group one consists of channels 1,3,5,
  19. % and 12, then using splitNSxNTrode will split the file into a smaller
  20. % NSx file that contains those channels only. If there are multiple
  21. % ntrodes then the files will split into multiple smaller files, equal in
  22. % number of the ntrode groups.
