Hardware Configuration
To access this app click on Hardware Configuration on the Central app. This app is for setting up channels and
various other parameters. It also allows the user to define the sampling frequency, filtering parameters, and many
other features for each individual channel. Further, the user can set other global and spike-sorting variables too.

 By default, only one instance of Hardware Configuration can be opened. To open multiple instances enable
this feature in Central under Tools  Options.
 All of the NSP inputs and outputs can be grouped by function or by their location on the NSP. Signal Types
are grouped by function. NSP Channels are grouped based on their physical location on the NSP.
 The NSP Channels consist of Amplifier Inputs, Analog Inputs, Analog Outputs, Digital Inputs, Digital
Outputs, Serial I/O, and Audio outputs.
 The Hardware Configuration window contains a toolbar with buttons in the upper left corner to change the
view of the window. The buttons (from left to right) are Icon View, List View, Detail View, and Full Row
Details.
 To configure any of these channels, select the channel type on the left side of the window. Each individual
channel is displayed on the right side of the window for the channel type that was selected. You can configure
the channels individually, by groups of channels, or select all channels. To configure an individual channel,
double click the channel to display the channel properties. To configure a group of channels, hold down the
<Shift> or <Ctrl> and click on channels. Once the group of channels to configure has been selected, click the
Channel Properties icon located at the top right side of the toolbar.
