Acquisition Timings can be easily defined as :
  · Free Running
  · Preset Time
  · Programmed Time (sum of Latency, Acquisition and Inactivity Periods)

Stop Control can be defined too:
  · When Programmed Time is over
  · After x visits to a determined zone
  · After x secs. visit to Target Zone
  · All arms visited once

SMART can be configured so that it can adapt to many different experimental situations. This greatly widens the range of application of the program and makes its use much more convenient and efficient.

  

SMART “must” know the dimensions of the system in order to give, for example, the right speed at which the experimental subject is moving when its tracks are analysed in the analysis part.
Calibrating is just as easy as selecting the borders of a known object on the image with 4 clicks, and writing the real horizontal and vertical dimensions of it (cms or inches).
