Markers

Marker data type in NeuroExplorer is used to represent the series of timestamps recorded from external devices (for example, stimulation times recorded as pulses produced by the stimulus generator) together with other stimulus or trial information. Event data type stores only the times when the external events occurred.

NeuroExplorer creates Marker variables when it imports, for example, strobed events from Plexon data files.

Viewers

You can view both the marker timestamps and additional marker information in the Markers tab of the Data window:

Extracting Events

Usually you will need to extract events with specific trial information from the marker variables. To do this, use Marker | Split… and Marker | Extract… menu commands.
