Description

Set the applied bias voltage.

This signal is first summed with the Scan, DDS signal, and external signal. It is then sent to the potentiostat's signal input.

•In Potentiostat mode, this sum is applied to the cell.

•In Galvanostat mode, the applied current is given by:

where V = Bias to be applied (REAL).

This function is usually superseded by the Signal Generator.

Result = Pstat.SetBias(Bias)

Bias	REAL	Bias to be applied, in volts.
Result	REAL	Return bias as set.
