11  Recording the Displacement Signal with an External 

Potentiostat

 

Many of today’s battery testers and potentiostats provide additional analog inputs that may 

be used to record sensor signals along with cell current and potential. 

In the following, the combination of the ECD-3-nano with a Biologic potentiostat (MPG-2, SP, 

VSP and VMP series) is described as an example. The Biologic potentiostats feature two 

analog inputs that are used here to record both displacement and temperature. 

1.

Connect the 9-pin Sub-D connector of the optional analog output cable to the analog 

input of the respective VMP3 channel.  

2.

In the Biologic EC-Lab software, load the experiment settings 

ECD-3-nano.mps 

provided 

on the EC-Link installation media. The settings are shown in the External Devices dialog 

(see screenshot below; actual settings may differ). Adapt the 

Parameter

 

Settings 

of the 

charge/ discharge protocol to your particular experiment, if necessary.
