Results Per Time Bin Settings

1. Under Settings, select:
   • The Length of the single interval (range: 0.001 second to 24 hours).
   • Ignore last time bin if incomplete. To exclude the last interval in the case this is of a shorter duration than the Length you have set.
   • Apply to all Results. Select this option if your data profile contains more than one Result box and you want to apply time bins to all of them.
2. Click OK.

Notes

• Results per time bin is applied for each track separately.
• In a setup with multiple arenas, tracking can start at different times for each arena, depending on when the Trial Control's Start conditions are met in the arenas. Therefore, the same time interval may refer to different 'real' times for different arenas.
• In a setup with multiple subjects per arena, tracking starts simultaneously for all the subjects in each arena. Therefore, the same time interval refers to the same 'real' time for all the subjects in that arena.
• If you select a time bin length that is short compared to the sample rate, bear in mind that: (1) Increasing the number of time bins increases the calculation time. (2) If the length of the time bins is shorter than the sample time, only some of the time bins will contain a sample.
• If the length of the time bins is not a multiple of the sample length, the time bins will differ in the number of samples they contain. For example, with a sample rate of 1 per second and a time bin length of 1.5 seconds, half the time bins will contain 1 sample and the others will contain 2.
• If you use time bins in combination with Nesting or Filtering, the time bins outside the data selection are shown in the table headers but with no results. In the example below, time bins of 10 seconds were used and a time interval was created with Nest over Time from 20 to 30 seconds.
• If you specify more than 1000 time bins in your Data profile, the group charts are not displayed. See Group Charts.
