The Arduino was limited in that the DAQ progress induced transient time-blocking. The ArControl had to compromise the executive ability with the completeness of the experimental data collection. Detailed measurements of the their differences in performance can be seen in Technical Performance.

Record_Level_data

The differece among Record Levels. Except data collection and execution efficiency, there is no differece among them.

Options in Record Levels

There is 3 optional cases for Record Level (Level 1-3). You can configured it in the ArControl Designer > Profile.

Record_Level

Level-1

Level 1 had no data collection and achieved the quickest executive efficiency (temporal resolution < 0.1 ms).

Level-2

Level 2 only collected the State information and obtained tiny blocking.

Level-3, Recommended

Level 3 had comprehensive data collection and obtained the most blocking (temporal resolution < 1 ms). The data was recorded in a way that all connected TTL-inputs were recorded, whether they were involved in controlling state flow or not. Additionally, every output event and State information were acquired.

Level 3 was the most suitable for animal behavioral experiments. Animal behavior occurred on a macro-scale against milliseconds, resulting in the side effect imperceptible for behavioral researches.
