==Hotel File Formats==
===Raw File Format===
6 byte header with 3 numbers. Each number is 16 bit integer, in lo-hi byte order
file_buffer [0],[1] -- # of pts in the file -- maximum of 13800 (0x35E8)
file_buffer [2],[3] -- pt of lights OFF
file_buffer [4],[5] -- pt of lights ON
data pts represent 6-second bins. Each data pt is 1 byte. There are 3 channels of data pts.
For the food cup channel, the data pt contains number of seconds the infrared beam was broken per bin (range: 0-6)
For the 2 bottle channels, the data pt contains the number of beam breaks (licks) per bin (range: 0 - ~40)
The arrays of data pts for each data channel appear consecutively in the data file
file_buffer[6] to file_buffer[num_of_pts+5] = food cup data pts
file_buffer[6 + num_of_pts] to file_buffer[(2*num_of_pts)+5] = left bottle data pts
file_buffer[6 + (2*num_of_pts)] to file_buffer[(3*num_of_pts)+5] = right bottle data pts
===CSV Files produced by LTAW===
header line, followed by one line for each bout (note commas at end of line...)
name of bout file:
"B<channel0-1>YYMMDD.CSV"
<filename>,<nothing?>,<channel0-2>,<lightsoff_pt>,<totalcounts>,<lightson_pt>,<pts_per_bin?>,<startpt>,<endpt>,<validpt>,<minbin>,<IBIpts>,
<zeroindexed bout num>,<startpt>,<endpt>,<counts>,
