Setting waveform/mode on Magventure?

[colecitrenbaum]

Hi,
Love this repo, thank you!

I'm not sure if this is still under development. When I go to set the waveform to Biphasic Burst (for theta-burst protocol), I have to use the following (for Normal pulse direction, 3 bursts, 20 iPi, all stimuli at the same amplitude (BARatio=1):

mv.setWaveform('BiphasicBurst','00',3,20,1,1)
Where mv is my instance of the magventure class. Is this correct?

This is different from the comments, which say that 'Normal' should work for the second argument.

Most importantly, I'd like to be able to set it back to regular 'Biphasic' from 'BiphasicBurst', and am not sure what to do with the extraneous arguments (burstPulses, ipiValue, etc). I just want to set it to "default" Magventure Biphasic settings.

Thanks, and apologies if I missed this in the documentation. Please let me know if there's an easier way to do this that I'm missing. I think this has overlap with issue #15

Hi Cole,

Thank you for pointing this out.

You are right, the current direction key value pair is not picked properly and instead of writing a string 'Normal' , one have to define '00'. We can fix this in the next release.

If you would set the mode to Biphasic, you will notice that the burstpulses, ipiValue , etc other fields are inactive (grayed out) i.e. ineffective, no matter what is set there. please let us know if this is not the case.

Thank you!
