Data Storage

These are storage parameters common to all data file formats. {{{remark}}}

DataDirectory

Path to an existing directory. Recorded data will be stored below that directory. The path may be absolute or relative.

SubjectName

A textual ID for the subject. This text will appear in session directories, and data file names.

SubjectSession

A textual ID for the current session. Sessions correspond to data directories. The path of a session directory is constructed according to

{DataDirectory}/{SubjectName}{SubjectSession}

SubjectRun

A number indicating the current run. Runs correspond to data files. To avoid accidental loss of data, run numbers are auto-incremented to the largest unused value. Within a session directory, data file names are constructed according to

{SubjectName}S{SubjectSession}R{SubjectRun}

A data file's extension depends on its File Format.

ID_System, ID_Amp, ID_Montage

These parameters are provided for documentation purposes and may contain arbitrary text.
