The EmStat4M module works with the human-readable MethodSCRIPT 
protocol for direct serial (USB or UART) communication. This allows for 
connecting and using the module in a terminal window or with any 
microcontroller, PC or operating system.  
The simple script language allows for running all supported electrochemical 
techniques and makes it easy to combine different measurements 
and other tasks. 
 
Code examples are available for: 

 

Android 

 

Arduino 

 

C/C++ 

 

Python 

 

iOS 

 

and C# 

 
MethodSCRIPTs can be sent to the EmStat4M by using the EmStat4M communications 
protocol. This is the device-specific communication protocol and also covers other device-
specific functionality like calibration and firmware updates.  
 

 

The EmStat4M can be used with PSTrace for Windows to run all the supported electrochemical 
techniques and to some extend to use the auxiliary and GPIO pins.  
PSTrace is ideal for evaluating the performance of the EmStat4M, but can also be used for 
generating MethodSCRIPT (see next paragraph for more information). The MethodSCRIPT 
snippets can again be used in any custom code project that controls the EmStat4M.
