[CodaSys]
NumCoda The number of Coda units configured for data acquisition. If you have two
Codas, you can temporarily de-configure [CODA_2] by setting NumCoda=1.
NumADC Enables or disables the ADC-64 analogue acquisition unit or cPCI A/D board(s).
NumForce Specifies the number of force platforms in use.
NumEMG Specifies the number of EMG systems in use.
Marker Type The type of marker drive boxes being used (1=Analogue, 2=Digital)
Marker
Acquisition Enables or disables marker acquisition – normally=1.
[CODA_1] (or [CODA_2])
SerialNumber This number must match the number of your Coda cx1 unit. It is used to check
that the calibration files match the unit.
CommPort The serial communications port being used on the host computer, laptop or
active hub (1=COM1, 2=COM2…, etc.) for Coda cx1 unit connection.
CodaType The type of Coda unit configured for acquisition (1=cx1, 2=mpx30)
Interface The serial communication interface type being used with the system
(1=MiniHub+BB RS422 card, 2=MiniHub+QuadUART RS422 card,
3=ActiveHub(cPCI)+QuadUART board)
CommPacket The serial communication packet size in hexidecimal notation – normally =
0x16.
CommRate The baud rate for serial communication (11=5Mbaud, 10=2.5Mbaud…,
8=1Mbaud, 7=460kbaud…, 4=115.2kbaud, etc.)
Cameras The number of cameras being used in the Coda cx1 scanner unit - normally=3.
MaskType The type of mask fitted to the Coda camera array (1=Pseudo Random, 2=Linear
Mask, 3=Linear Mask Correlation) – normally=3.
Orientation The default orientation of the Coda scanner unit with respect to the floor
(0=Horizontal, 1=Horizontal Inverted, 2=Vertical – A camera top, 3=Vertical – C
Camera top). This is overridden by the alignment procedure.
DSPProgramFile The program code file which is down-loaded to the SHARC processor. This
may change when you receive software upgrades.
[ADC_1]
Type The type of data acquisition board/unit configured (1=CharnDyn ADC-64,
2=GS-16AIO).
SerialNumber The ADC-64 acquisition unit serial number.
NumAnalogue Specifies the number of analogue channels configured on the active hub.
NumDigital Specifies the number of digital channels configured on the active hub.
InputRange The input voltage range for each 32 channel group configured on the active hub
(0=+/-2.5V, 1=+/-5.0V, 2=+/-10.0V).
DSPboard The PC I/O base address of the DSP32C interface card to which the ADC-64
unit is connected.
