SuperLab provides support for all RB-x30 USB-based response pads. These are:
RB-530 RB-830
RB-730 RB-834
Click on the Setup tab to change the model manually or click on the Auto Detect button to have SuperLab search for a connected response pad.
SuperLab automatically creates a number of responses based on the selected model. You can edit or delete them. A response can consist of a key press or a key release. If you need a response that consists of a key release, make sure that the Ignore the key release checkbox in the Options tab is turned off. It is a good idea to give the response a descriptive name, e.g. “target” or “same”.
The RB-x30 response pads have a flexible Accessory Connector on the back that can be used for sending event markers or for interacting with external devices; see the Digital Output event type.
The following options are available for the RB-x30 Response Pads input device:
Ignore the key release: If your experiment needs a response that consists of a key release, this option should be turned off. Otherwise it is a good idea to keep this option turned on.
Wait until the key is released: When this option is turned on, SuperLab will not advance to the next event or the next trial (depending on which sub-option is selected) until the participant has released the response pad key.
