EEGDEV-OPEN-OPTIONS

NAME

eegdev-open-options - Device configuration format specification

DESCRIPTION

Syntax of the configuration string
The device configuration string should follow the syntax:

device[[|option1|value1]...[|optionN|valueN]]

If the specified device does not support a certain pair of option|value, this will be silently ignored by the opening function. device should be the name of a eegdev plugin or any. In the later case, it will try to open one of the devices supported by the installed plugins.

Syntax of the configuration files
The configuration files are made of statements (at most one per line) following this syntax (whitespace are ignored):

option = value

Comments are preceded by the ’#’ character:

# comment line 1
# comment line 2
option = value #comment2

FILES

/etc/eegdev/eegdev.conf

Shared configuration file.

/etc/eegdev/<plugin>.conf

Configuration file loaded when the plugin <plugin> is used. The settings specified here overrides the settings in the shared configuration file.
