LSL Outlet

Use the LSL Outlet mode to configure EMOTIV data streams that can communicate with other devices or 3rd party software.‌

Configuration

SETTING	DETAILS
Stream Name	Set the stream name for transmission
Device ID	This displays the Device ID for the selected device
Data Stream	Choose the data stream for transmission and select between EEG, Performance Metrics (PMs), Motion Data, Contact Quality (CQ) or EEG Quality (EQ), Band Power.
Number of channels	This displays the number of channels available for transmission (note this correlates to the number of channels available for that headset type)
Sample rate	This displays the sampling rate of the selected data stream (note this correlates to the sampling rate available for that headset type)
Data format	Choose the Data format for transmission as either Double/Float. However, If you choose Float format, only data value in range -16777216 to 16777216 are represented accurately (LSL doc). The Timestamp is not accurate because out of range. But others are fine.
Transmit type	Set the transmission type by selecting between Sample or Chunk. For Chunk, you can set the Chunk size to be 4/16/32/64/128/256
Start	Click this button to start transmission
Stop	Click this button to stop transmission
