[FieldTrip] Difficulty detecting TTL pulses with ft_read_event

[Jonathon James Parker]

Hi FieldTrippers:

I am a LFP/Brain stimulation researcher new to FieldTrip @Stanford.

I have run across some difficulty using the ft_read_event  to detect TTL pulses and triggering my data into discrete epochs

I have 14 channels of LFP data and 1 channel of trigger data recording using a gTec USBAmp-Research.  I have successfully read in the data, filtered-it, re-referenced channels of interest, and appended the un-filitered trigger channel (‘TRAIN’).

The TTL pulses are on (value ~1) while stimulation is on. I would like to trigger based on the upgoing flank.

Each time I run ft_read_event, I have passed it the isolated trigger channel data, but I receive this error:

Does anyone have sample scripts they could share with use of ft_read_event to detect TTL pulses?

See my full code below:

Thank you!
