4. Place the Production bath solution into the sample
vessel and measure Q.
Operate a sequence in Electroplating Bath VA
The sequence to measure with the electroplating modes CVS or
CPVS includes the following steps:
1.
Initial mixing time
2. Initial electrode conditioning
a. Conditioning cycles (Number of “conditioning cycles” de-
fined in No. of cycles on the Voltammetric tab of the EDIT
WORKING METHOD PARAMETERS
window)
b.
Pretreatment
c.
Sweep (Number of sweeps defined in No. of sweeps on the
Voltammetric tab of the EDIT WORKING METHOD PA-
RAMETERS
window)
Note: Define the number of these "Initial electrode condition-
ing measurements” on the Determination tab of the EDIT WOR-
KING METHOD PARAMETERS
window. You can either set a fi-
xed number, or put a ”Std.dev.“ as stabilizing border.
3. First Measurement:
a. Conditioning cycles (Number of “conditioning cycles” de-
fined in No. of cycles on the Voltammetric tab of the EDIT
WORKING METHOD PARAMETERS
window)
b. Pretreatment
c. Sweep (Number of sweeps is defined in No. of sweeps,
number of saved sweeps in Save last .. sweeps on the Volt-
ammetric
tab of the EDIT WORKING METHOD PARAME-
TERS
window)
Note: Instead of repeating sweeps, you can also repeat
the whole Measurement cycle. Define the number of repli-
cations in
No. of replications on the Determination tab of
the
EDIT WORKING METHOD PARAMETERS window.
Metrohm recommends to set the No. of replications on 1,
the
No. of sweeps on 4 and Save last .. sweeps on 2.
4. First Addition:
Add standard or bath solution (is depending on the Cali-
bration
technique). You can do it either manually or auto-
matically using Dosing Devices. The Volume should be de-
fined on the Substances tab of the EDIT WORKING
METHOD PARAMETERS
window.
5. Addition mixing time:
