ECGone is not working

[parinazbabaee]

Hi,

I am using HAPPE_v4.m and MATLAB_R2025b. My EEG data has 32 channels, plus an additional ECG channel (33). I am using the option ECG on, and since the name of the channel is ECG, I mention ECG when the software asks for the name of the channel, but during the analysis, I receive the following error message: "ERROR: ECGone failed. Proceeding to wavelet thresholding..."
In addition, when I enable bad channel detection, the ECG is always considered a bad channel as it appears in "HAPPE_dataQC".

Here is the setup that I am using to preprocess the EEG data:

PARAMETER SETTINGS:
Density: Low (<= 30 channels)
Resting State or Task: Resting State
Data File Format: .set (EEGLab)
Acquisition Layout: Unspecified
Channels: All
Line Noise Frequency: 60 Hz
Line Noise Reduction Method: CleanLine - Default
Resample: Off
Filter: - Lowpass Cutoff: 40

• Highpass Cutoff: 3
• Type: EEGLAB's FIR
  Bad Channel Detection: On
• Bad Channel Detection Order: Before Wavelet Thresholding
  ECGone: On
• ECG Channel: 'ECG'
• Peak Detection Window Length: 0.25 seconds
• Template Length: 30 seconds
  Wavelet Thresholding: Default
  MuscIL: On
  Segmentation: On
• Segment Length: 2 seconds
  Interpolation: Off
  Segment Rejection: On
• Segment Rejection Method: Amplitude criteria only
  • Minimum Segment Rejection Threshold: -150
  • Maximum Segment Rejection Threshold: 150
  • Segment Rejection based on All Channels or ROI: All
    Re-Referencing: On
• Re-Reference Method: average
  Visualizations: On
• Power Spectrum Minimum: 5
• Power Spectrum Maximum: 15
• Frequencies to Plot: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13
  Save Format: .set file

I would appreciate your help with this issue and your suggestions.
Best,
Parinaz.

Hi Parinaz, did HAPPE output an error log that you can share with us?
