Fake Monkey IO Device¶
Available on macOS
Description¶
A simulated monkey that has the ability to generate spikes and continuous eye position data
Signature¶
iodevice/fake_monkey
Optional Parameters¶
spike_rate¶
- Default
25
Average rate of spike generation (spikes per second). The actual times between individual spikes are drawn from an exponential distribution with lambda equal to the specified spike rate.
autostart¶
- Default
NO
If YES, the device will start I/O automatically (as if by an
implicit Start IO Device action) when the experiment starts running.
Note: Device I/O will always stop automatically when the experiment stops running, irrespective of this setting.
alt¶
Alternative device to use if this one fails to initialize (e.g. because the required hardware is not available). If #allowAltFailover is set to 0 or false, this parameter is ignored.
