It prints a help message out on screen, which I think it would only do if it did could not make sense of the command line options. If you specified verbatim "emotiv2ft <config-file> [hostname=localhost [port=1972 [ctrlPort=8000]]]” then it would indeed not work. You should specify the right options in the brackets. The square [] brackets are optional, the <> brackets are required. So you should at least specify the configuration file. The defaults for the last three options (localhost, 1972 and 8000) should be ok, since you started the buffer in step 6 on the localhost with the default port (which is 1972).<br class=""><br class="">best regards,<br class="">Robert<br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 31.66666603088379px;" class=""><span style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 23.75pt;" class=""><font face="Times New Roman" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class=""><br class=""></span></font></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 31.66666603088379px;" class=""><span style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 23.75pt;" class=""><font face="Times New Roman" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class=""> </span></font></span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 29 Nov 2016, at 04:36, gao nuo <<a href="mailto:nancygao260@hotmail.com" class="">nancygao260@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div id="divtagdefaultwrapper" dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class=""></p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" class="">Dear Sir:</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" class=""> I want to import Emotiv headset data to matlab.
