File MIES_WaveDataFolderGetters.ipf¶

Collection of Wave and Datafolder getter functions.

All functions with return types DF or Wave return an existing wave or datafolder.
Prefer functions which return a DFREF over functions which return strings. The latter ones are only useful if you need to know if the folder exists.
Modifying wave getter functions might require to introduce wave versioning, see Wave versioning support

Version History

Wave

1: Initial version
2: Renamed column Name to Tags
3: Added chunks dimension indexing over channel types

Tags format

Initial version in a2172f03 (Added generations of epoch information wave, 2019-05-22), parsed in PA plot since 4e534e29 (Pulse Averaging: Pulse starting times are now read from the lab notebook, 2020-10-07).

In d150d896 (DC_AddEpochsFromStimSetNote: Add sub sub epoch information, 2021-02-02) tree level 3 info for pulse train pulses was added, which is read out since ba209bbd (PA plot: Gather more pulse infos, 2021-02-02).

And in 2371cfb0 (Epochs: Revise naming, 2021-09-22) we changed the naming of the tags and also adapted PA_RetrievePulseStartTimesFromEpochs.

For these three formats we have tests in RPI_WorksWithOldData(). When changing the tags format this test needs to be updated.

wave GetDAQConfigWave(string device)¶

Return the DAQ config wave.

Rows:

One for each channel, the order is DA, AD, TTL (same as in the DAQDataWave)

Columns:

channel type, one of XopChannelConstants
channel number (0-based)
sampling interval in microseconds (1e-6)
decimation mode (always zero)
data offset
headstage number
clamp mode

The wave note holds a list of channel units. The order is the same as the rows. TTL channels don’t have units. Querying the channel unit should always be done via AFH_GetChannelUnit() or AFH_GetChannelUnits().

This wave is also used for NI devices as configuration template. There is one difference though: While for ITC devices there is one TTL row for each rack, for NI devices there is one TTL row for each channel (up to 8 currently) The channel number column holds the hardware channel number for the NI device

ITC hardware: The number of TTL bits which are stored in each TTL channel is hardware dependent and can be queried with HW_ITC_GetRackRange().

Version 1 changes:

Columns now have dimension labels
One more column with the channel data offset
Due to the wave versioning the channel unit is now stored with the CHANNEL_UNIT_KEY as key and it is now separated not with semicolon anymore but a comma.

Version 2 changes:

DAQChannelType column added

Version 3 changes:

Change wave to double precision
Headstage column added
ClampMode column added
