Users are REQUIRED to report in the 'Cahier MEG' (the green rigid cover notebook on the PC desk) a number of key informations about the recordings. This tracking is crucial for the good maintainance of the MEG, and for the user to correctly process the data.

For each experiment, write down (in READABLE characters) the following information:

* Date

* Time

* Researcher in charge of the recording

* Project name

* Subject anonymous name (NIP), Age and Handedness

* Acquisition setting used for recording

* HPI recording option used: continuous HPI (cHPI) or simple HPI

* SSP "On" or "Off"

* Maxshield "On" or "Off"

* Auxiliary channels recorded: EOG, ECG, EMG, other…

* Filenames given to your recording sessions

NB: If you use "on line" averaging, you will save at first your averaged data (avg) and then, your raw data (raw). To name your recordings, it is recommended to use this naming rule:

		avg + date + subject NIP
		raw + date + subject NIP
			ex: avg_20081217_Labyt

Mark whether your files have been directly saved on the data server (default configuration) or locally (e.g. in case of network crash)

* filename of your stimulation script (E-prime, Matlab, etc…)

* Relevant information about the recording: bad sensors, time at which they were heated or retuned and outcome of the procedure (= did it work?), subject behaviour (movements etc.), any other relevant events.

* number of trials averaged for each category (if you used on-line averaging)

* feedback from your subject after the recording
