has the coaxial connections for the four cell cables, as well as a ground connection. Also, pin-jack
connections for the cell cables are provided that connect across a built-in 10Mohm (10E7) resistor that is
to be used to provide feedback when the LCI does not have a cell to connect to, and/or it can be used as a
“dummy cell” for QA/QC or diagnostic purposes. The potentiostat interface panel has the interface
connection and power LED.

The WE cable connects to the W pin jack, the SE cable connects to the S pin jack, the RE cable connects
to the R pin jack and the CE cable connects to the C pin jack.
1.2.3. LCI Cell Cables
The cell cables (WE,SE,RE, and CE) and ground leads that connect to the LCI are approximately 40cm
in length, The cell cable terminate at the LCI end with a coaxial (BNC) connection, while the cell
connection end terminates in a standard pin-jack that can accept various connectors such as the included
alligator clips shown below.
