Many thanks for that: I'd had some problems creating the doc info under Eclipse (managed now). Have found detailed info on extracted events: still 1 question (but considering the volume of documentation, I may simply have missed it). Inside the depressing synapse event filter (DepressingSynapseFilter, net.sf.jaer.eventprocessinhfilter.DepressingSynapseFilter.java), type and y are between 8 and 15 (and not 16 as I wrote above). I now understand that for this sort of event, type = y, I take it that...

Hi Sim: got that to work - had to add line 'Das1' 'cochleaams1cv4' ; to the initialisation of devices in BasicSourceName.m. Now I need to look harder at the file formants beween the program, and the asdat output, since I want to write a slightly different depressing synapse.filter...

Looking at the values in e.y and e.type: they both seem to be always the same, and between 8 and 15: suggests a 4 bit value with a 1 for neuron firing and 0 for not firing. Bit 3 (msb) set for most sensitive neuron output. Is this right? Is this documented anywhere?

BinauralCochleaEvent 's (subclass of CochleaEvent, subclass of TypedEvent, subclass of BasicEvent) have class variables x, y, type, timestamp and Ear. I understand that x is the bandpass channel, and timestamp is the time in uS, and Ear is RIGHT or LEFT. I'd expected either type or y to be the level of the spike (which neuron it emanates from), and so to be 1 to 4 or 0 to 3, but both y and type seem to be 8, 12, 16 rather than smaller numbers. Also y and type seem to be the same (or was that just...
