- In CPU mode, the value should be somewhat greater than the trace length (system-dependent, but typically . This value is both system and configuration dependent. For simple configurations (e.g. involving only ephys) is is typically at least 0.5 sec; adding other channels from other programs (e.g. stimulator) will increase the time needed to fully 'settle' between traces. If the desired interval is only 2 sec (or less) longer than the trace length, either test the efficacy of the looper the configuration, or use DAQ mode.
- In DAQ mode, the interval is defined as equal to the trace length; i.e., the same value should be used in the Interval windos of the loopGui as in the trace length window of I/O programs (ephys, stimulator, acquirer).
If there is a discrepancy, a warning gui is displayed, and the value used for the loopGui Interval is applied to the other programs.
