Command: SetNumRecProcesses

Name:
SetNumRecProcesses - Set the number of MPI processes dedicated to recording spikes.

Synopsis:
n_procs SetNumRecProcesses -> -

Description:
Sets the number of recording MPI processes to n_procs. Usually, spike detectors are distributed over all processes and record from local neurons only. If a number of processes is dedicated to spike detection, each spike detector is hosted on one of these processes and records globally from all simulating processes.
