mne.io.read_raw_fif#

mne.io.read_raw_fif(fname, allow_maxshield=False, preload=False, on_split_missing='raise', verbose=None)[source]#

Reader function for Raw FIF data.

Parameters:

fnamestr | file-like

The raw filename to load. For files that have automatically been split, the split part will be automatically loaded. Filenames should end with raw.fif, raw.fif.gz, raw_sss.fif, raw_sss.fif.gz, raw_tsss.fif, raw_tsss.fif.gz, or _meg.fif. If a file-like object is provided, preloading must be used.

Changed in version 0.18: Support for file-like objects.

allow_maxshieldbool | str (default False)

If True, allow loading of data that has been recorded with internal active compensation (MaxShield). Data recorded with MaxShield should generally not be loaded directly, but should first be processed using SSS/tSSS to remove the compensation signals that may also affect brain activity. Can also be “yes” to load without eliciting a warning.

preloadbool or str (default False)

Preload data into memory for data manipulation and faster indexing. If True, the data will be preloaded into memory (fast, requires large amount of memory). If preload is a string, preload is the file name of a memory-mapped file which is used to store the data on the hard drive (slower, requires less memory).

on_split_missingstr

Can be 'raise' (default) to raise an error, 'warn' to emit a warning, or 'ignore' to ignore when split file is missing.

New in version 0.22.

verbosebool | str | int | None

Control verbosity of the logging output. If None, use the default verbosity level. See the logging documentation and mne.verbose() for details. Should only be passed as a keyword argument.

Returns:

rawinstance of Raw

A Raw object containing FIF data.

Notes

New in version 0.9.0.

When reading a FIF file, note that the first N seconds annotated BAD_ACQ_SKIP are skipped. They are removed from raw.times and raw.n_times parameters but raw.first_samp and raw.first_time are updated accordingly.
