ScannerSynchClass

ScannerSynch provides an interface for National Instruments PCI 6503 card used to capture all pulses (scanner synch pulse and button pulses alike) when using MATLAB.

For more information, type in MATLAB

help ScannerSynchClass

N.B.: National Instruments PCI 6503 card does not monitor pulses in the background, so you have to make sure that you wait for any pulse before it comes!

Any problems, report them to Johan Carlin.
