The ft_definetrial and ft_preprocessing functions require the original MEG dataset, which is available from ftp://ftp.fcdonders.nl/pub/fieldtrip/tutorial/Subject01.zip.
% find the interesting segments of data
cfg = []; % empty configuration
cfg.dataset = 'Subject01.ds'; % name of CTF dataset
cfg.trialdef.eventtype = 'backpanel trigger';
cfg.trialdef.prestim = 1;
cfg.trialdef.poststim = 2;
cfg.trialdef.eventvalue = 3; % trigger value for fully incongruent (FIC)
cfg = ft_definetrial(cfg);
% remove the trials that have artifacts from the trl
cfg.trl([15, 36, 39, 42, 43, 49, 50, 81, 82, 84],:) = [];
% preprocess the data
cfg.channel = {'MEG', '-MLP31', '-MLO12'}; % read all MEG channels except MLP31 and MLO12
cfg.demean = 'yes';
cfg.baselinewindow = [-0.2 0];
cfg.lpfilter = 'yes'; % apply lowpass filter
cfg.lpfreq = 35; % lowpass at 35 Hz.
dataFIC_LP = ft_preprocessing(cfg);
These data have been cleaned from artifacts by removing several trials and two sensors; see the visual artifact rejection tutorial.
Subsequently you can save the data to disk.
