2. Variables

These can be set or recalled in your sketch

• String sketch: String, unique identifier text for each sketch (this will show up on the screen and in log file). Example:
  String sketch = "FreeFeed";

• LeftCount: Int, total number of pokes on the left nosepoke, initializes to 0

• leftInterval: Int, duration of the last left nosepoke in ms

• RightCount: Int, number of pokes on the right nosepoke, initializes to 0

• rightInterval: Int, duration of the last right nosepoke in ms

• PelletCount: Int, total number of pellets dispensed, initializes to 0

• retInterval: Int, how long the pellet remained in the well before it was taken in ms. Times out at 60000ms

• minPokeTime: Int, minimum duration for a poke to count, in ms. Initializes to 0. Example:
  fed3.minPokeTime = 1000;<br> if (fed3.leftInterval > fed3.minPokeTime) {<br> fed3.Feed(); //only Feed if left poke is held for >1000ms<br> }

• timeout: Int, a timeout period where FED3 will be unresponsive (in seconds). Initializes to 0. Example:
  fed3.timeout = 10; //Set a timeout period of 10 seconds, starting after each pellet is taken

• Event: String, variable containing which type of event triggered the datalogging, options are Left, Right, or Pellet

• EnableSleep: Boolean, defaults to "true". Set to "false" to disable sleep functionality. Turning off sleep will drain the battery much faster but can be useful when troubleshooting new programs. Example:
  fed3.EnableSleep = false; //Turn off sleep functionality

• FED3Menu: Boolean, defaults to "false". Set to "true" to run a simple menu system at startup to choose between programs
  fed3.FED3Menu = true; //Run menu at Startup
