[status]= abmsdk('1830_b30_112311_122300.def', 'C:\ABM\B-Alert\Data\1830_1');

i have enter this and other possibilities, because there aren't info about the operator. but it isn't incorrect.

>> [status]= abmsdk('1830_b30_112311_122300.def', 'C:\ABM\B-Alert\Data\1830_1');
Error using abmsdk
Invalid command...

[Walter Roberson]

This appears to refer to the Advanced Brain Monitor (ABM) B-Alert SDK

The first parameter passed to abmsdk needs to be a command, such as SetDestinationFile

I seem to be having difficulty finding a list of the available commands.

[Alma Martinez]

Yes, i want to connect the B-Alert with matlab. And the format its:

[status]= abmskd ('SetDestinationFile'), destinationFilepath);

where the input is destinationFilepath-Absolute path to destination folder and name. But in anycase i have invalid command.

[Walter Roberson]

Try

status = abmsdk('SetDestinationFile', 'C:\ABM\B-Alert\Data\1830_1\1830_b30_112311_122300.def')

But if that is an existing file, make a back-up copy of it first, in case it overwrites the file.

Answer 2

[Alma Martinez]

ok, i intent all. And the correct sintaxys, is:

 [status]= abmsdk('SetDestinationFile',C:\ABM\B-Alert\Data\1830); 
                                       |

where the input is destinationFilepath-Absolute path to destination folder and name

But another

Error: Unexpected MATLAB operator. appear, is the C: maybe? Or another solution?

[Walter Roberson]

 [status]= abmsdk('SetDestinationFile', 'C:\ABM\B-Alert\Data\1830');

Filenames should always be placed in quotes.
