Constant Current System (CCS-BTA)

Specifications and User Guide

Troubleshooting

• Primary Test:
  1. Connect the Constant Current System to the interface.
  2. Connect the AC power adapter. (Included, but the same as LabQuest^® Power Supply (LQ3-PS))
  3. Start the data-collection software.
  4. Be sure the dial is turned counterclockwise to the minimum. Connect the red and black clips together.
  5. Turn the dial clockwise. The current reading should increase to 0.6 A when the dial is turned to the maximum.

Additional Troubleshooting

• Do you have updated instructions for Advanced Chemistry with Vernier Experiment 21, Electroplating?
• Do you have a power supply for electrolysis?
