Note: The most common use of channel cloning is to record a continuous version of one tetrode channel, allowing the user to filter for low frequency signals, such as Theta, while still recording the high frequency spike activity without any special connections or equipment. Changes to the settings of an acquisition entity using one of the cloned channels will not affect any other acquisition entity using other clones of that channel. Users can make unlimited copies, or “clones,” of each input channel and use Cheetah to perform the desired bandwidth filtering for each signal type.
SWAPPING CAMERAS IN CHEETAH 3D FULL
Digitizing the full bandwidth signals allows Cheetah to perform digital filtering (Digital Signal Processing (DSP) on the signal. Neuralynx’s Digital Lynx SX system eliminates channel duplication challenges by digitizing and sending the signal to Cheetah without any analog domain modification: all channels are sampled at 24-bit resolution and are full bandwidth (DC to 8 KHz). This extends the investment made in laboratory equipment.
SWAPPING CAMERAS IN CHEETAH 3D SOFTWARE
One software package - Cheetah - seamlessly integrates with all of Neuralynx’s hardware acquisition subsystems, including our most recent Digital Lynx SX, FreeLynx wireless digital telemetry, and Digital Multiplexing Headstages. Cheetah enhancements support the flexibility to easily configure electrode input channel assignments and signal processing options needed for the user’s specific experiments. Over the past 20 years, Neuralynx has been continually developing and enhancing Cheetah Software for Single Unit Action Potential and LFP research experiments, providing the signal and data processing features and performance required for this highly demanding aspect of neuroscience research. Through excellent software design and efficient CPU usage, Cheetah is able to process 512 input electrode channels. Cheetah Software provides the ultimate, high performance electrophysiology recording and experiment control software available for neural signal processing, display, recording and network data distribution for customized, online experiment analysis and control.
