Hi guys,
I bashed my head against a little problem and would appreciate your help.
I have a Varioport (tool to measure eda) which is connected
to my pc via comport. All I want to do is to send signals from Inquisit and through the comport. It doesn´t have to be an elaborate signal. I just need a beep, blip or whatever. After I got everything working, I can´t figure out, what signal to send or how to send a signal. I know Inquisit can communicate with the varioport tool, because at the beginning and at the end of the experiment Inquisit sends an automatic signal though the comport.
Can you tell me what kind of signal Inquisit sends automatically or how I can send a comparable signal?
This is a snippet if the code I´m using right now:
<port comporton>
/ items = ("00001000") **I tried various combinations here.
/ port = COM2
</port>
<port comportoff>
/ items = ("00000000")
/ port = COM2
</port>
<trial porttesttrial>
/ trialduration = 1000
/ posttrialpause = 500
/ stimulustimes = [1= comporton, square_yellowg]
/ontrialend = [port.comportoff]
</trial>
<page porttestgo>
Porttest
</page>
<block Porttest>
/trials = [1-5=porttesttrial]
/ preinstructions =(porttestgo)
</block>
Thanks for your help in advance!
