ImportABF
ImportABF imports Molecular Devices (Axon Instruments) ABF files
The file created is a sigTOOL compatible version 6 MAT-file with the kcl
extension
Example:
OUTPUTFILE=ImportABF(FILENAME)
OUTPUTFILE=ImportABF(FILENAME, TARGETPATH)
FILENAME is the path and name of the ABF file to import.
The kcl file generated will be placed in TARGETPATH if supplied. If not,
the file will be created in the directory taken from FILENAME.
ImportABF calls three mex files ABFGetADCChannel, ABFGetDACChannel and
ABFGetFileInfo that in turn call the manufacturer's DLL to load the data.
ImportABF is therefore a Windows only function.
Toolboxes required: None
The ABF filing system is copyright Molecular Devices
