After 100 seconds the initial delay stops by itself. If the initial delay still continues (Status display still shows Open Circuit) when you read this, click the F2-Skip button. The… read more →
Click the F3-Pause button. The display stops updating. Pausing any portion of an experiment causes the experiment’s timer to stop running. All time-dependent actions, such as data-acquisition, stepping the voltage,… read more →
Click the OK button. If you ran the EIS software previously, the software may place a small dialog box on the screen, asking, Replace output file “EISPOT.DTA”. Click the Yes… read more →
Congratulations! You have just started your first EIS experiment. The Framework™ now starts the experiment, beginning with the 100-second initial delay. The dialog box disappears and a graph of open-circuit… read more →
You now see a new window (called a Runner window) and a dialog box within the window. The Runner window has a Title Bar at the top. The Runner window’s… read more →
Choose the potentiostat to record the tutorial data. NOTE: You must select the potentiostat that is attached to the EIS dummy cell. In many cases the desired selection is already… read more →
Connect the cell cable on potentiostat number 1 to an AC dummy cell. The printed-circuit board contains labels identifying the locations for the cell cable’s leads. Continue the tutorial
Close any other open Windows® applications and any other Framework™ child windows such as an editor window. NOTE: Unlike some of the other Framework scripts, the EIS data-acquisition process uses… read more →
The primary script provided with the Framework™ records an EIS spectrum on a potentiostatted sample. The excitation is a small AC voltage centered on a specified DC potential. In this… read more →
