General description

This plugin is used to create stimulation profile for different channels. It is possible to create different states.

Configuration

The plugin uses this specific configuration.

Plugin configuration

Name	Type	Description
config	String	Configuration which should be loaded if the file exists.
maximized	Bool	General attribute whose default value was set to 1.
signal_next_state	String	Signal which contains the next state which should be chosen in the gui.
readonly	Bool	Removes the ability to add/remove channels/states when enabled

Parameter

A plugin instance can be manipulated by the following parameter.

Provided parameter

Name	Type	Example	Description
None	None	None	None

Events

A plugin instance provides this events which can be used to manipulated parameters of other plugins.

Provided events

Name	Type	Description
StimulatorConfiguration	Array[float]	Sent when a state was changed
Heartbeat	Int	Value is changed every second.
MaximaSlider	Array[float]	Sent when a channel slider was changed.
ControlStim	Int	General control signal.
NextState	Int	Sent when the user wants to change the state.
Start	Int	Sent when ‘start’ or ‘stop’ was pressed.

The StimulatorConfiguration event has following structure:

[state_nr_1, is_next, ch_1_start, ch_1_end, ch_1_rise, ch_1_type, ch_2_start, ... , state_nr_2, is_next, ch_1_start, ... ]

The Heartbeat event is used to inform the backend that the GUI is still alive. The heartbeat changes it’s value between 1 and 2 every second.

The MaximalSlider event has following structure:

[slider_value_1, slider_active_1, slider_value_2, slider_active_2, ... ]

The slider_value is given in the range [0,1] with a resolution of 101, the current slider state is described by 1 (active) and 0 (inactive).

The ControlStim event is used to trigger different actions, currently we use 2 to trigger the calibration process and 3 to finish the calibration process.

The Start event is used to trigger start by 1 and stop by 0.

The NextState event is used to send the preferred next state.

Example

A default configuration for this plugin can be found here: example_config.xml

A simulink model and with a PaPI configuration can be found here: SimulinkModel, PaPI Configuration,

It is only necessary to build the model, start the binary, start PaPI and start the PaPIController.
