WaveFormDisplay
Tool
Summary
TThe WaveformDisplayTool (WDT) is a universal tool for
the visualization of shared data. By combining the flexibility
of the WDT commands and the power of the MATLAB display
options, you have a complete graphics display program to
create presentation-ready figures.
Using this tool, you can graphically select and manipulate
segments of Neuroshare Native (NsN) data from one or more
channels. NsN data can come from a variety of collaborating
data acquisition systems, or directly from NeuroMAX. The
display of each input channel can be independently modified
in the WDT to obtain the best view of that data.

Details
The WDT operates using Plot Steps (specific user-defined
display commands) and Scripts (a customized series of Steps).
The combination of every Step’s instructions within
a Script describes how the Data File will be displayed.
Loading previously saved Scripts gives you an immediate graphics
display of your data; modify Steps or change Scripts to view
the data in new way to bring out the details or show a comparison
between various data sets.
In the WDT, a Workspace (WS) includes all information used
to create a graphics display. This includes the WS name; pointers
to specified Data File(s) in a separate directory; and Script
file(s). All information required to recreate a WS is saved
in a single directory, with the exception of the Data File.
The Data File (or a selected portion of the Data File) will
be copied to memory for use with the WDT. The original Data
File is not modified.
The WDT includes a set of Templates, which are default instructions
that researchers might use to display typical data: “all
channels displayed, in a waterfall offset”; “first
channel displayed”; etc. There are multiple Templates
for each Display Type (analog data, segment data, etc.). When
a Template is selected, its instructions are copied into a
Script, as the first Step.
