EEGDEV-BIOSEMI(5)

💖 EEGDEV-BIOSEMI 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the eegdev library manual, and it's all about eegdev-biosemi — the little plugin that lets the eegdev library talk to your Biosemi ActiveTwo hardware. no cap. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

eegdev-biosemi — the eegdev backend for Biosemi ActiveTwo hardware 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the biosemi plugin is the thing that implements the backend for the eegdev library, specifically for Biosemi Activetwo hardware. and the slay part? it supports both the Mk1 and Mk2 models. iconic behavior honestly. 👑

🎀 CONFIGURATION 🎀

this plugin supports several options, and listen — the default value gets used if none of the configuration files nor the configuration string (peep egd_open(3) for that one, iykyk) specify the option. so if nobody says anything, the default just shows up and does its thing. main character energy. 💅

• numch — the number of channels that should be supported by the BIOSEMI system. the accepted values are 32, 64, 128 or 256. and now the important bit, bestie, don't skip this: beware that the value can be set superior to the actual number of ADC subsystem embedded into the acquisition hardware. if that's the case, the additional channel will always return 0. the default value is "64". 😭

🦋 FILES 🦋

• /etc/eegdev/eegdev.conf — the shared configuration file. 💜
• /etc/eegdev/biosemi.conf — the configuration file that gets loaded when the plugin is used. the settings you specify in here override the settings in the shared configuration file. so this one wins, periodt. 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• egd_open(3)
• eegdev-options(5)

and that's the whole vibe bestie!! 💖 this gorgeous lil page came from EPFL, dated 2012, and it lives in the eegdev library manual. go forth and configure your channels responsibly, mwah 🎀✨🫶
