Acquisition Site Binding

Site binding

Maps electrode positions to data channels.

  1. Select a Placement system
  2. Click Add binding — creates a new channel row
  3. Type the site name
  4. Click Confirm binding

Note: Only ch0 is the effective EEG channel. The heatmap builds from rolling site records.

Serial Connection

Connection panel

Both hardware parameters and site bindings must be confirmed before connecting.

Click Open wired connection → select device from browser dialog. The app sends EEGRSTEEGCFG → waits for ACKs.

Click Disconnect EEG device to close. Click Revoke device access to remove site permission.

Data Stream

Data stream panel

Click Start collection to begin sampling. Optional CSV output: toggle ON → choose file. First 30s excluded for device warmup.

Stream states: Idle → Starting → Collecting → Stalled (no packet for 2s).

Filter Controls

Filter controls
