Labeling EEG Triggers

[David McFarlane]

If you use the latest version of EP2, then I highly recommend looking 
into the new Task Events feature, see 
http://www.pstnet.com/support/kb.asp?TopicID=4803 or the New Features Guide.

Stock reminder:  1) I do not work for PST.  2) PST's trained staff 
take any and all questions at 
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp , and they 
strive to respond to all requests in 24-48 hours, so make full use of 
it.  3) In addition, PST offers several instructional videos on their 
YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/PSTNET ).  4) If you do 
get an answer from PST staff, please extend the courtesy of posting 
their reply back here for the sake of others.
