Install the IMX8 Multiplexer cell cables
Each cell to be tested in an experiment requires a
cell cable
.
The IMX8 comes with eight 1.5 m long cell cables (985-00038).
Connect the 9-pin D-sub connector of the cell cables to the
mating cell cable connectors numbered from1 to 8 on the front
panel of the IMX8 and hand-tighten the jackscrews.
The other cable end has Gamry's standard banana plug/alligator
clip termination to connect to a cell.
Connect your IMX8 to a Gamry potentiostat
When using either a Reference 600+/620 or Interface 1000/1010
potentiostat, a standard 1.5 m long
interface cable
(985-00080) is
required to couple the potentiostat to your IMX8.
Connect the male 9-pin D-sub connector to the mating
Pstat
connector on the front of the IMX8. The male 25-pin D-sub
connector plugs into the mating
Cell Cable
connecotor of your
potentiostat.
For Reference 3000 potentiostats, an additional
Y-cable
(985-00108) is required. Connect the double-end of the Y-cable
to the mating Counter/Working and Sense Inputs on the front
of the Reference 3000.
The standard
interface cable
(985-00080) is then connected to
the Y-cable's single-end. Connect the male 9-pin D-sub
connector of the interface cable to the mating
Pstat
connector
on the front of the IMX8.
