[Eeglablist] Biosemi channel locations for 32+2 layout

[Daniele Marinazzo]

Hi

I did it a while ago, I remember is a bit tricky. There is probably a
better way, but this should be what it worked for me

the file biosemi_eloc.txt must contain " Electrodes _ _" in the first line,
then the coordinates from  the excel file

then I did this (for the 128 channels)

>pop_chanedit(readlocs(biosemi_eloc.txt', 'format', { 'labels'
'sph_theta_besa' 'sph_phi_besa' }, 'skiplines', 1));

save as .ced (eg. converted_from_excel.ced)

from matlab Import data -> select the .ced file, import as column vectors

>for i=1:129;disp([num2str(i) '  ' num2str(sph_theta(i))  '  '
num2str(radius(i)) ' ' EEG.chanlocs(i).labels]);end %change this if you
have a different number of channels

%N.B. here channel 129 is the external 5, which is in polar coordinates in
the excel file, then you need to reorganize the file adding the four EOG
channels. Or you can just use the first 128 channels, and then paste the
five externals, for which the location is not so important.

Copy what is displayed on the screen, paste it in an empty document, save
with a convenient name (eg. mylocations.locs. Then you can paste the EOG
channel locations etc.

Also, if you want to have the channels with their names (Cz, etc) and not
as A, B, C, D you can change the names in the EEGlab structure

EEG.chanlocs(i).labels

either manually, or with a loop in which you read the new locations.

cheers
