What's New in MC_Stimulus 2.1?

• Important: MC_Stimulus 2.1 will only support Windows 2000 or Windows XP.
• New Auto Sync feature: The Auto Sync feature is intended for making the work with MC_Stimulus more efficient and user friendly. It is especially recommended for controlling the MEA1060-BC amplifier with superior stimulus artifact suppression, but will be useful also for other applications. Digital Sync Out (TTL) pulses that are synchronous to stimulus pulses on selected output channels are generated automatically by the Auto Sync. If you change the stimulus protocol, the corresponding Auto Sync pulses are updated automatically as well.
• New ASCII Export feature: You can export the pulse protocols in the standard ASCII file format. For instance, you can load the ASCII file into your custom text or spreadsheet editor, modify it, and reimport it into MC_Stimulus.
• Demo files for typical applications included in the program setup. Please see the Examples folder in the MC_Stimulus program directory.
• Operating MC_Stimulus without administrator rights is now fully supported.
