Description

The

FSWEEP

instruction (Fast Sweep) starts the voltage sweep defined in

the parameters. During the sweep, the potentiostat always operates in
the operating mode "fast".

Comments

The electrode type must be defined before the

FSWEEP

instruction.

Admissible are

DME

,

SMDE

,

HMDE

or

RDE

.

The measurement mode must be defined before the

FSWEEP

instruction. Admissible are

DCTMODE

,

DPMODE

,

AC1MODE

,

AC2MODE

or

SQWMODE

, but not

PSAMODE

or

CYCMODE

.

The use of the

FSWEEP

instruction is practical only with the measure-

ment modes

DPMODE

and

SQWMODE

. With the other allowable meas-

urement modes,

FSWEEP

is identical to

SWEEP

.

The

FSWEEP

instruction should always be used instead of the

SWEEP

instruction with adsorptive stripping techniques (e.g. Ni and Co with
DMG).

With the

FSWEEP

instruction maximum 1000 measured values can be

recorded.

Apart from the

FSWEEP

instruction, no other SWEEP instruction is

allowed in the same segment.

If the final voltage

U.end

should not be switched off at the end of the

program, enter a suitable standby voltage

U.standby

in a

ØMEAS

instruction.
