how to get the timestamp when acquisition starts?

[fjflores]

Hi. When I open a file in neuraviewer, it starts at the moment that acquisition starts, not recording. However, when I read a CSC in MATLAB, the first timestamp match the start of recording. How can I get the timestamp for when the aqcuisition started in MATLAB? (other than looking at the log file)

Thanks

When you open a file in Neuraview, it should begin when recording is started and not when acquisition begins. Cheetah does not record any data to disk when the record button has not been selected. This information can be found in the logfile though. Please feel free to send a sample data file to support@neuralynx.com if you need further assistance with this.
