11.2 Use the PrintToLog tabsheet to control printing of useful
information
Sometimes it is helpful to only include certain ADsweep and protocol flow information. This is controlled
by the PrintToLog tabsheet (Fig. 11.1.1C) which determines first, which ADsweeps are to be printed, and
second which Loops, AvgLoops, Runs and Run and Else of Run/Elses to be printed.
In general, Loops, Runs, and Runs and ElseRuns of Run/ElseRun constructs contain useful protocol
information.
11.3 Printing AvgLoops is usually not useful
In contrast, AvgLoops rarely contain useful information because they are just a repeat of the same sweep
stimulation.
For example in the following protocol (Fig. 11.3.1a), a standard protocol for obtaining baseline activity with
signal averaging prior to any application of drugs or stimulation, the AvgLoop can clearly be unchecked.
MainProtocol
 Loop [ 3]
 AvgLoop [ 4]
 P0sweep [ 5]s
EndAvgLoop
EndLoop
EndProtocol
