SteppedProfile

a driving Profile with possible repeats after incremental changes

A multi-channel driving Profile for any application where experimentally a digital to analog conversion would be employed. It is based primarily on the requirements of voltage and current clamp patch studies where the same command may be repeated several times (nstep) with increments in particular sections and a pause (ms) between repeats. The nrepeat field is for repeating the whole series of steps which is only useful in a model if some pseudo-random process is being explored such as stochastic channel activity or noise.
