Customization Label Area
The left side of the Interface 1000 front panel has a transparent area in its plastic overlay. A paper label behind
this area allows a custom appearance. This is especially important when the instrument is in a multiple-
potentiostat system.
By default, the label in this area shows the instrument’s serial number written in white text on a blue
background. You can choose a different label. A sheet of alternate labels is provided with each instrument and
a user-editable Excel file can be found on the Gamry website.
Full instructions describing the process of changing a label are near the end of the Installation chapter (Chapter
3).

Power In Jack
The Power In jack is a 4-pin power DIN connector. The Interface 1000 derives all its power from +48 V DC
input through the Power In jack. The input current is less than 1.5 A.
Always use the external power supply supplied with your Interface 1000 or power from an Interface Power
Hub to supply DC power to the instrument.
A glowing red Overload LED does not necessarily indicate a system malfunction. The
Overload LED can illuminate when one or more cell leads are disconnected, without indicating a problem
with the system. The Overload LED can often illuminate momentarily during a swept or stepped
experiment. The only Overload LED indication that definitely points towards a problem is a continuously
glowing Overload LED during an experiment.
