<b>Typical Protocol</b>
<p><b>Monday - electrode implantation</b><br>
1. Check batteries on BAK stimulator, and change if reading lower than 115V (reads ~ 135V with brand new complement of batteries).  Be very careful not to yank internal wires.<br>
2. Check batteries on patient interface, and change if reading lower than 18V (reads ~ 27V with brand new complement of batteries).<br>
3. Set up cabling for ITC to record from 16 channels (unplug channel 1 to test stimulation circuit). <br>
4. Using the oscilloscope, check TTL pulse for gate and monitor out signal with stimulation circuit online.<br>
5. Pick up CT scan from radiology library (signed HIPAA release required) after surgery (~11AM).<br>
6. Merge 2nd structural MRI with CT on Stealth.<br>
7. Merge 2nd structural MRI with CT on AFNI and view with functional activation on cortical surface to select candidate electrodes.<br>
8. Have Lisa or Rodney jumper the candidate electrodes from the jackbox to our amplifiers.<br>
9. Double check that the jumpered electrodes are the ones we want.<br>
10. Make sure cart, display, and eye tracker are room-ready.<br>
11. Have tape measure, several surgical grounding pads available.<br>
 
<p><b>Tuesday or Wednesday - experiments</b><br>
1. Have Lisa or Rodney place scalp reference and ground electrodes.  Check for good signals on all 16 channels.<br>
2. Turn on KNOT.<br>
