80 eDAQ Potentiostats
With highly resistive loads, using a large range setting with a small
(close to zero) current can produce unexpected large potential signals
because of small offsets in the current control circuitry. If you require
very small currents always use a small range setting as well, this will
ensure a minimum offset error. For example, to apply a current of only
25 nA use the 100 nA range setting for best results.

Galvanostat mode of operation is accessed by choosing the Potentiostat
command in the Channel Function pop-up menu to open the control
window. Turn on the Galvanostat and Dummy radio buttons,

When in Galvanostat mode, the current and potential signals will be
reversed from normal (potentiostatic) operation. That is, the ‘I Out’
