Chapter 3: General Operation
The EIS Box was developed to increase the throughput of your electrochemical impedance testing program. It
allows one instrument to drive up to eight electrochemical cells. Under the control of an external computer, the
EIS Box connects one cell at a time to the instrument, which makes an electrochemical measurement on that
cell.
The EIS Box was specially designed for the needs of electrochemists. Extra features such as sense line and
shield-switching
— designed specifically for electrochemists — from other general-purpose switching devices.
The EIS Box is
integrated into all Gamry Instruments’ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy applications that
run under the Gamry Instruments Framework software. It allows many of the applications to increase their
throughput by testing multiple cells in a single test run.
This chapter of the EIS Box
Operator’s Manual provides an overview of the operation of the EIS Box. It discusses
the following topics:
•
Operation overview
•
Switching and inactive cell control
•
Communications overview
The material in this chapter is only an overview. If you are using your EIS Box with Gamry Instruments software
this overview should give you sufficient understanding to make intelligent use of your EIS Box.
