<br>
<a href="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5590246/HW_EC_12052013.txt.zip" target="_blank">https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5590246/HW_EC_12052013.txt.zip</a><br>
<br>
it's about 5mb, and contains 21 channels of data sampled at 200 hz.<br>
<br>
currently set up with electrodes as columns, and channel labels included, but i've tried importing with transposing electrodes to rows, and also tried both with and without labels..<br>
<br>
I assumed it would need to be "without labels and transposed", and when setting up that way it imports, but only shows 1 single channel (appending all electrodes into 1).<br>
<br>
any suggestions?<br>
<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
andrew<br>
