I have a couple different images set up in an item list named trigg. I have a trial that will display the picture for a certain duration. The block will add one to the current target list so it will cylce through until done.



What I am trying to do is get it so that the 10 specific images in the 30 will trigger a port when displayed. There are 2 images for each port because they send a different data output.



Is there any way to get this to work. Like an if statement/ condition in the Block?

Since <port> elements are essentially equivalent to all other stimulus elements such as <text> or <picture>, the "How to present stimulus pairs" topic in the documentation should answer your question.

So if I were to do a
/ select = picture.trigg

What would be required for the first image?

Unfortunately this example is meaningless without context. In general: Your <picture> elements comprise a number of /items. So do your <port> elements. You'll want to have the "item" (i.e. TTL signal) in the <port> depend on the item of the <picture>. Exactly that you'll find covered in the documentation topic I mentioned, only with <text> elements.

(1) If the TTL signal is *always the same* as in your example, there is no need for any selection stuff at all. Simply have your <trial> "display" it along with the picture.


(2) Have you given http://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/v4/html/howto/howtopairs.htm a look? If so, it should be clear how to define the dependency between elements.

The TTL signals will be different for groupings of 2 images in the 10 items.


The trial I have does:

<trial trigg>
/ stimulustimes = [0=trigg]
/ trialduration = 1700
/ validresponse = ("W")
/ correctresponse = ("W")
</trial>


So I would need to associate multiple <port> Since there would be 5 other ports sending different data.

No. A <port> can have multiple /items just like a <text> or <picture>.

I will be associating different <port> items with different pictures.


My trial pulls from the pictures listed in <picture trigg> which is from a <item trigg> list.



The block takes that info and randomizes the pictures being displayed.

How would I go about making the picture that is displayed send the item in <port>?

Suppose I have a <text> element with two items, A and B. I want to sent a <port> signal, 00000001 for A and 00000010 for B:

<trial mytrial>
/ stimulusframes = [1=mytext, myport]
[...]
</trial>

<text mytext>
/ items = ("A", "B")
/ select = noreplace
</text>

<port myport>
/ items = ("00000001", "00000010")
/ select = text.mytext.currentindex
</port>


The same applies when using a <picture> instead of <text>.
