read_montage
(kind, ch_names=None, path=None, unit='m', transform=False)[source]¶Read a generic (built-in) montage.
Individualized (digitized) electrode positions should be read in using
read_dig_montage()
.
In most cases, you should only need to set the kind parameter to load one of the built-in montages (see Notes).
Parameters: | kind : str
ch_names : list of str | None
path : str | None
unit : ‘m’ | ‘cm’ | ‘mm’
transform : bool
|
---|---|
Returns: | montage : instance of Montage
|

Notes
Built-in montages are not scaled or transformed by default.
Montages can contain fiducial points in addition to electrode channels,
e.g. biosemi64
contains 67 locations. In the following table, the
number of channels and fiducials is given in parentheses in the description
column (e.g. 64+3 means 64 channels and 3 fiducials).
Valid kind
arguments are:
