User manual

Select the tracker configuration. Each configuration

consists of the Camera Mount Type (Desktop, Arm

Mount) with the Camera Mode or Orientation (Remote,

Level, Angled) in parentheses. Additionally are two

types of Desktop Mount – one with the Illuminator on

the Left and the Camera on the Right (ILLUM—CAM –

illustrated in the Figure at left), and the other with

these reversed. Your Host PC should have the

software configured for your mount. Other entries in

the descriptor include the recommended lens to use and reminders about

condition of recording (i.e., Stablized Head, Target Sticker).

Remote recording modes require licensing of the EyeLink Remote software

option. Configurations with the camera angled can record monocularly or

binocularly. Configurations with the camera level are monocular. Each

recording mode includes a description with the recommended lens.

Clicking on the ‘Select Config’ button raises the dialog box above, from which

other modes of data collection can be selected. Each column consists of the

description entries and the last entry is a unique identifier for the configuration

that will be logged in the EDF file.

For the Tower mount the available configurations are listed in the configuration

dialog shown below. This includes The Primate Mount’s monocular recording

mode.

Keyboard Shortcuts: F8 = provide the dialog box with options; up and down

cursor keys move selection among available configurations; Enter selects.
