Time Before Trail
End (sec)
Time before trail end, after pressure drops, and before
continues to next trail countdown.
The numbers of trials in the sequence, 1 – 100 trails.
Randomizes the next trial or sequence.
ISI Min (sec) /
ISI Max (sec)
Inter Stimuli Interval. Defines the min. and max. Time between
successive trials (stimuli), and randomizes the actual time
between them. If these values are the same, then the interval
is fixed. – between 0 to 600
Event marked at the onset of the stimulus. Select event from
the available list: Onset1-Onset5. See section 7.3.2
7.3.1.2 Ramp and Hold
In this method, the operator generates stimuli of changing intensity according to predefined
course. Pressure can be increased at predefined rate to a specific intensity level and
maintained manually during predefined time. Pressure course is displayed on the screen at real
time and adjusted accordingly to the required pressure intensity at each moment.
