<%EXTOGGLE%>Command Group: Active Experiment

 

Command: Edit
Edit the parameters associated with the active experiment.

Command: Run          
Runs a CV experiment for the specified scan and experimental parameters.

Command: Measure IR-Drop & Run
Determines the uncompensated ohmic resistance, Ru (Ohm), and runs a CV experiment setting the IR-compensation to the highest possible value Ru (Ohm).

Command: Run Accumulations
Accumulates a series of CV experiments for the specified scan and experimental parameters. Should be used only when conducting experiments on an automatic mercury electrode where a fresh drop is generated each time before  starting a new accumulation.  The number of accumulations can be specified in the associated Properties Window.
 

Command: IR-Drop  
Performs an AC experiment from which the uncompensated ohmic resistance, Ru (Ohm), and the double layer capacity, Cdl (F), of the electrode is determined.
 

Command: Experimental Background Correction        
After replacing the sample with a solution containing only the solvent and the supporting electrolyte this command can be used to measure the background current using exactly the same scan and experimental parameters as in the active experiment. The measured background current is then subtracted from the experimental CV.
 

Command: Simulated Background Correction
Simulates the background current using the experimentally measured Ru (Ohm) and Cdl (F) values. The simulated background current is then subtracted from the experimental CV.
 

Command: Smooth Curve
Applies a Savitzky-Golay-Filter (specified by the Digital Smoothing Filter settings in the associated Properties Window) to the active CV experiment.

 

Command: Circles
The active current curve is plotted in the form of open circles.

Command: Filled Circles
The active current curve is plotted in the form of filled circles.

Command: Min/Max Info
Shows the E-I-couple referring to the minimum/maximum found in a rectangle of the screen display drawn by mouse.

Command: Next Scan Segment
Activates the next scan segment If the active simulation consists of more than one.
 

Command: Exclude
Use the mouse to draw a rectangle around the current points which are to be excluded from data fitting. The command can be repeatedly applied. After releasing the mouse button all current point excluded from data fitting are plotted in red. For this reason red should not be selected as color for the active or inactive experiment.
 

Command: Unmark Active Curve
Undoes the Exclude-command for the active experiment.

Command: Unmark All Curves
Undoes the Exclude-command for all experiments shown in the Tabbed Window: Experiments.

Command: Remove Ringing
Use the Exclude command to draw a rectangle containing the area around the switching (or starting) point where the ringing occurs before clicking on Remove Ringing.

<%EXTOGGLE%>Command Group: Data Exchange

 

RAM_Disk Command: RAM-Disk   RAM_Disk
Opens a dialog box showing the actual content of the RAM-Disk. The RAM-Disk stores data in use-file format. It can be used for exporting simulations to the Tabbed Window: Experiments where they can used as target curves in a Data Fitting Project. In this way experimental curves can be mimicked by simulated ones, for instance, in order to investigate how  systematic errors such as noise are passed to individual parameter values when using these files in a fitting project.    
 

RAM-Disk Command: Export       ExportExperimentRAM
Exports the active experiment in use-format and stores the use-file in the RAM-Disk.
 

RAM-Disk Command: Export all Experiments to RAM-Disk
Exports all experiments shown in the Experiments-window in use-format and stores the use-files in the RAM-Disk.
 

File Command: Export
Exports the active experiment as use- or txt- file analogously to exporting a simulation.

File Command: Export all Experiments
Exports all experiments  as use- or txt-files analogously to exporting all simulations.

 

<%EXTOGGLE%>Command Group: Display

 

Command: Next
The next current curve is activated.
 

Command: Previous
The previous current curve is activated.
 

Command: Delete Active Experiment
Deletes the active experiment.

Command: Delete All Experiments
Deletes all experiments shown in the Tabbed Window: Experiments.

Command: Zoom
Zooms the screen display by pressing down the left mouse button and draw a rectangle around the region which is to be zoomed. The zoom command can be repeatedly applied.

Command: Unzoom
Undo the zoom command.

Command: Refresh Screen
Removes Min/Max-Info and redraws the screen display.

Option Plot: Current
Plots the current curve(s).

Option Plot: Semi-Integral
Plots the semi-integrated  current curve(s).
