0.7.0

Neuropixels-PXI Plugin v0.7.0

Release notes

New features:

• Add OneBox plugin
  • Includes up to 4 probe data streams and one 12-channel ADC stream
  • Can run in simulation mode if no OneBox is connected
  • Support for DAC outputs coming in next release
• Add full electrode layout for Neuropixels Ultra (switchable) probes
• Add support for new probe types
  • Neuropixels 2.0 quad base
  • Neuropixels 2.0 single-shank (commercial)
• Update IMRO format to latest spec
  • Supports sharing IMRO files with SpikeGLX for all probe types except Neuropixels Ultra
• Exported ProbeInterface JSON files now include all electrodes, not just selected ones
• Add “refresh” button to Neuropixels PXI plugin to rescan for connected probes
• Add progress bar when loading or refreshing plugins
• Add the ability to disable individual probe data streams
• Restrict sync output frequency to 1 Hz
• Show electrode info in tooltip window

Bug fixes:

• Normalize by correct number of ADC bits for Neuropixels 2.0 commercial probes (12 vs. 14). Data recorded with previous plugin versions can be corrected by multiplying by 4.
• Prevent crash when deleting plugin before initialization is complete
• Prevent multiple Neuropix-PXI plugins from connecting to the same device; additional plugins now run in simulation mode
