test_mechanisms.py

This program displays the results of inserting NEURON mechaanisms from .mod files into a point cell to voltage steps in voltage clamp. This code is primarily for visual verification of model function.

Usage: python test_mechanisms.py <mechname>

Note: only modfiles that implement voltage-dependent ion channel models make sense to run with this routine. the list “nottestablemechs” in the file defines mechanisms provided with cnmodel that cannot be run with this program.
