This example illustrates:
This example illustrates how to set a fixed Inter-Trial Interval (ITI) in Experiment Builder. The project uses a variable to record the onset time of the previous trial, then uses a Timer trigger to wait a fixed time from the previous trial's onset value. In this way, the onset time of each trial is time-locked at a constant value to the end of the previous trial.
**Additional detailed information about the project is given in the notes section for most nodes. To see notes for a given node, either mouse over that node or click on it to display the notes window. If the notes window is not visible, go to the "View" drop down menu in Experiment Builder, select "Properties", and check "Note".
NOTE: Please see our Timing Control in Experiment Builder Webinar for more details of Timing Control.
