WARNING: Error in HW channel mapping

[samuelbray32]

This package assigns hw channels to nwb electrodes based on the order in which the appear in the rec header. This will create data inconsistencies if the nTrodes id's are not in the same order in the rec file as they are in the yaml metadata.

To avoid this error please use the updated conversion package

[samuelbray32]

On further investigation, this package does not directly use hwChan to map data to the nwb file. Instead rec_to_binaries maps the e-series data to a ntrode group file name during preprocessing extraction here.

Takeaway :

• The map from ntrode id to eseries data and metadata is consistent between the rec file and generated nwb
• The hwChan recorded is not consistent between the rec file and generated nwb
