EIS300 "Check300" Test Results
Error for Not Authorized Package

Reference 3000
Optional Test
Introduction
After the Gamry Framework and Gamry software packages
have been installed, and the potentiostat has been calibrated,
you are ready to use the Framework interface to run
experiments with the Gamry software packages. General
instructions for running experiments are on page 16.
If you bought the EIS300 Electrochemical Impedance
Spectroscopy Software, you can run an EIS test experiment
using Universal Dummy Cell 3 or 4.
This test is not required. However, it is a good idea to run it
to check potentiostat functionality and to become familiar with
the process of running experiments through the Framework
interface.
EIS300 "Check300" Test
Using the EIS edge of the Universal Dummy Cell and
the"Check300.exp" script (found in the "Scripts" folder), you
can run a Potentiostatic EIS scan on the Universal Dummy
Cell.
To do the EIS300 test:
1)
2)
3)
If your Potentiostat is not authorized for the EIS300 software
package, this experiment will not run. You will receive an
error like the one shown here. This message is similar to
other messages generated when experiments from not-
authorized packages are ran. See Page 9 to correct the code
entry or your local Gamry representative to purchase the
additional code.

Potentiostat/Galvanostat/ZRA Quick-Start Guide
Connect the clips on the cell cable to the appropriate
posts on the EIS edge of the Universal Dummy Cell 4.
(For color codes, see page 16 or wait until the script
displays connection information.)
Run the "Check300.exp" script that is stored in the
"Scripts" folder. No parameter values apply to this test.
The results are automatically written to a file named
"Check300.dta".
When the test has concluded, compare your results with
the screenshot (see left).
If the plot in your Framework window is similar to ours,
the potentiostat passed the test.
If the plot in your Framework window is not similar to
ours, try the experiment again with the Universal Dummy
Cell in a Faraday Cage, such as the Calibration Shield.
If your plot is not similar to ours after running the test
with the Universal Dummy Cell in a Faraday Cage,
