====Booting the Computer Properly====
We maintain two different versions of the NetStation program for data collection.  Follow these steps to boot the computer properly to use the version you want.  '''Remember, consistency in your data collection is important, so the version of NetStation matters.'''

The data collection room is setup so you can pipe in audio and visual stimuli to your subejct.  Follow these steps to set this up properly.

====Event Timing====
If your experimental paradigm records when responses and stimuli occur, we has a system for accurately timing these events and recording them with the EEG signal.
