 Now you've told MATLAB to add this new location to the list of places it looks for commands (the "​path"​). To check that MATLAB can find our shiny new EDF loader, do ''​which edfread''​. If things are set up right, MATLAB should reply with the location of where the ''​edfread.m''​ file is located, and you're all set for the final step below. Now you've told MATLAB to add this new location to the list of places it looks for commands (the "​path"​).

 ☛ Construct a vector of timestamps containing the time, starting with 0, of each of the 8448 samples in this data. This requires knowing the sampling rate of the Emotiv; consult the manual or the file header to find this out. Then, replot the data using this time vector. ☛ Construct a vector of timestamps containing the time, starting with 0, of each of the 8448 samples in this data.

 +==== Optional: streaming Emotiv data ====

 +If you want to access Emotiv data in (near) real-time, rather than loading a previously saved file, I recommend using the FieldTrip toolbox. Use Git, as above, to clone the current FieldTrip repository. Then, in MATLAB, add it to your path as follows:
 +
 +<​code>​
 +cd('​C:​\Users\mvdm\Documents\GitHub\fieldtrip'​);​
 +ft_defaults;​
 +</​code>​
 +
 +Make sure your Emotiv headset is on and you have the Bluetooth receiver'​s light flickering. Then, from a command prompt, launch the following two executables:​ ''​buffer.exe''​ (in \GitHub\fieldtrip\realtime\bin\win32) and ''​./​emotiv2ft.exe emotiv-config.txt''​. If that looks like it's working (you should get some status updates showing up in the command prompt), do this in MATLAB:
 +
 +<​code>​
 +ft_realtime_plot([])
 +</​code>​
