General Notes
===================
-If you receive the error "unable to enumerate amplifiers" or "unable to load okFrontPanel.dll", try installing .NET 3.5 via Microsoft Update or Windows Update.


Release Notes
===================

v2.56 (2013-02-13)
======================
- tecella_chan_set_stimulus restored, so stimulus setting can be
  changed one channel at a time


v2.55 (2012-10-08)
======================
- No longer automatically loads previous stimulus assingment at startup.


v2.54 (2012-10-06)
======================
- tecella_apply_StimAssign now takes filename as an arg
- tecella_load_StimAssign now takes filename as an arg
- Add "All 1", "All 2" buttons for setting all channels to Stim 1 or 2
- Add "Load" buttons to allow loading of pattern files
- Add "Save to" buttons to allow saving to pattern files


v2.53 (2012-10-05)
======================
- Fix example.vcmd/.icmd format issues
- Fix bug that example.vcmd/.icmd files were not properly closed
- Use C:\TecellaLabDataA folder to prevent stimuli incompatibility


v2.52 (2012-09-10)
======================
- Change the applied stimulus assign file name to "appliedStimAssign"
- Resize window to fit standard laptop screen when StimAssign GUI
  appears with the full GUI. (i.e. When "alwaysShowStimAssign" file
  is present, and "onlyStimAssign" file is not present.)


v2.51 (2012-09-08)
======================
- Move Balboa/Metro stimulus assign function to API
- Remove Statistics tab in default configuration.  To display
  Statistics tab, include file named "showStatistics" in the
  same folder as TecellaLab.exe
- Fix intermittent problem of error message popping up upon exit


v2.50 (2012-09-06)
======================
- Support Balboa/Metro system.  Create "onlyStimAssign" file to start
  TecellaLab in Stimulus Assign only GUI.  Create "alwaysShowStimAssign"
  file to start full TecellaLab with Stimulus Assign GUI under DSP tab.


v2.49 (2012-08-27)
======================
- Stimulus steering bits have been scrambled by default to accommodate
  for customer cable pin-out.  This release adds the ability to not scramble
  the bits by placing a dummy file named "directStimSteer" in the same
  directory as TecellaLab.exe.  "directStimSteer" should contain at least
  one character (space, newline, anything), because sometimes zero size
  files are treated differently.


v2.48 (2012-08-26)
======================
- Amadeus/Balboa branch will henceforth be v2.xx.xx
- Add config file support for Amadeus
- Gain = 1 + (510 + y + .18)/(x + .18)   where wiper=.18 count
- For 3X Amadeus mode, create tab-delimited file, amadeus_0.cfg, as follows:

    amadeus_0.cfg (first line is comment line)
    7
    3x      3.003
    30x     28.15
    60x     59.06
    120x    123.04
    300x    335.03
    600x    602.00
    650x    649.46


2011-02-10 Release
===================
- Mux control bit support added.  3 digital out bits.


v0.46
=================
- Fixes bessel for Amadeus.  Branch from v0.119.40.


v0.40
=================
- Remaps the channel steering output pins for Amadeus.


v0.39
=================
- Add tecella_chan_set_iclamp_enable and tecella_chan_get_iclamp_enable.
- hwprops_ex_01 structure changed.
- Structure of hwprops remains the same, but some values have been renamed.
- Converted icmd values in hwprops to reserved.
- Vcmd values in hwprops converted to stimulus values.
- Stimulus values should be interpreted as icmd or vcmd values depending on the current mode.


v0.38
=================
- Fix a spurious DEVICE_CONTENTION error that would occur during continuous acquisition if a stimulus is not used.


v0.37
=================
- Fixed an Amadeus instability introduced in the previous release.


v0.36
=================

-----------
This version introduces a new GUI with dockable windows.
New features include:
	- Selectable amplifier configurations, if supported by the amplifier.
	- Automatically combines multiple connected amplifiers so it looks like one.
	- Automatic compensations now work during repeat acquisition.
	- Improved capacitance compensation algorithm.
	- Auto calibrate/scale/artifact can now be toggled on/off.
