Purge time (s)

[ 0...80600 s ; 300 s ]

Time of inert gas purging before the first measurement of the
sample solution.

Conditioning

cycles

Electrochemical regeneration of the solid state electrode by a
freely selectable number of conditioning cycles. For every cy-
cle, the voltage is changed at a sweep rate of 1 V/s to the

End

potential

and then decreased at the same rate back to the

Start potential

.

Start potential (V)

[ -5...+5 V ; -1.2 V ]

Start voltage for the cyclic conditioning sweep.

End potential (V)

[ -5...+5 V ; -0.1 V ]

Final voltage for the cyclic conditioning sweep.

No. of cycles

[ 0...X ; 0 ]

Number of conditioning cycles.

Cleaning potential (V)

[ -5...+5 V ; -0.8 V ]

Voltage applied to the electrodes during the

Cleaning time

.

Cleaning time (s)

[ 0...80600 s ; 10 s ]

Time during which the

Cleaning

potential

is applied to the

electrodes.

Sweep

Parameters of DP sweep used at the end of the cleaning cyc-
les for checking the electrode (see VA measurement modes,
section 3.2).

No. of repetition cycles

[ 0...X ; 5 ]

Number of repetition cycles for applying the conditioning cyc-
les and cleaning potential steps.

Cell off after measurement

[ on, off ; on ]

Enable/disable the switching off of the voltage applied to the
electrodes after measurement.

Stand-by potential (V)

[ -5...+5 V ; -0.1 V ]

Voltage to be applied to the electrodes after measurement if
the

Cell off after measurement

box is set to

off

.
