(a) Combinations of local and global inputs (I_i: DC voltage 25–100 mV, G: pulse of amplitude of 600 mV and width of 50 ms), and (b) resulting outputs, showing that I_i/O_i transmission shuts down when a voltage pulse is applied at the global input. (c) The same pulse shuts down transmission of voltage pulses (amplitude of 220 mV, offset of 80 mV, width of 10 ms) applied at the local input. (d) Combinations of local and global inputs, now with an inverted pulse as the global input, and (e) resulting outputs showing that transmission is enabled during the inverted pulse. (f) The same pulse now enables transmission of local input.
