Are 'galvo_l_amplitude' and 'galvo_r_amplitude' in config file obsolete? #75

What do these two galvo amplitude settings do? The GUI has only one amplitude setting on the Parameters tab: in ours it starts at 5V. Where does this number come from and are the r and l amplitudes now obsolete?

Hi, Rob, They are not obsolete, but they do use only one of the parameters (right arm, iirc). I set them to equal values in the config file startup dictionary to keep things simple. In future the code can be changed to use each of them separately, if needed.
