Hi Jan-mathijs,

Thanks so much for your quick reply! I'll test your instructions out.

Hi Jessie,

I did not suggest to use the 4D software.
I pointed to some documentation which probably was not clear enough.
You can look at the hdr.grad.tra matrix (after reading in the header using fieldtrip, and specifying the raw data file, so no .m4d or .xyz nonsense here).

if you do:

figure;imagesc(hdr.grad.tra), you'll see a matrix which essentially has the colourful bits at the far right side of it. These correspond to the weights. If you have a gradiometer system, this probably corresponds to hdr.grad.tra(1:248,597:end), for a magnetometer system it will be hdr.grad.tra(1:248,249:end). The lower right part of the tra matrix hdr.grad.tra(249:end, 249 (or 597):end) allows you to decode which reference coils contribute to which reference channel.

Best,
Jan-Mathijs
