Switch on/off current measurement. If switched
on, the set

is applied to the electrodes

and the current is measured continuously. This
mode is indicated by the red light beside the

button.

Potential (V) [ -5...+5 V ; 0 V ]

Voltage to be applied to the electrodes.

Potential (V) [ read only ]

Display of current voltage applied to the electro-
des.

Current (xA) [ read only ]

Display of measured current.

No electrode

No electrode connected to the 797 VA Compu-
trace stand. This setting is useful for changing the
electrode at the stand.

DME

Selection of the Dropping Mercury Electrode
(DME).

SMDE

Selection of the Static Mercury Drop Electrode
(SMDE).

HMDE

Selection of the Hanging Mercury Drop Electrode
(HMDE).

RDE/SSE

Selection of the Rotating Disk electrode (RDE).

Switch on/off inert gas purging.

Tests the electrodes (see

Check the MME

, section

Note: Occasional electrode tests should be done
in this sector and not with the “GLP Wizard” (not
to overwrite GLP data).

RDE/Stirrer speed (rpm) [ 0...3000 rpm ; 2000 rpm ]

Revolutions per minute of the stirrer/RDE.

DME: Switch on free dropping at the MME.

SMDE: Dropping in intervals of ca. 1 s at the
MME.
HMDE: Formation of a new single mercury drop

at the MME .
