Viewing Cyclic Voltammetry Data
Cyclic Voltammetry data is displayed in a CV view window (see 
Opening a Cyclic Voltammetry Data Plot).
The right pane of the window displays the cyclic Voltammogram. The x-axis is the applied voltage and the y-axis is the detected current. To change the appearance of the plot (for example, to display a grid, change the plot or background colors, change the scale, or change the font) right-click anywhere on the plot and select Decoration on the context menu.
The left pane of the CV view window displays basic information about when and how the data was collected.

Name |
The Name assigned to the sample. |
|
|
|
|
Date |
The Injection Date/Time. |

Additional sample description (if any). |

CV Steps |
The steps (the three voltages and the number of seconds they were applied) that define one CV cycle. See Detector Control: |

|
The left pane also provides options for changing the display mode:
|
|
|
|
Single CV at cycle # n |
Displays one cyclic voltammogram at a time. For example, if the CV run consisted of 6 cycles, you can view voltammograms 1 through 6 individually. |
|
|
|
|
Average of All CV Cycles |
Averages the voltammograms from each cycle in the run and displays the resulting voltammogram. |
|
|
|
|
Overlay of All CV Cycles |
This mode displays all of the voltammograms recorded in the run. Each one is plotted in a different color. To see (or change) the color assigned to each plot, select Decoration from the View or context menu. |
|
|
|
|
Reversed (Polarographic) |
Selecting this check box inverts the plot axes. The voltage will be plotted from positive to negative (left to right) and the current from positive to negative (bottom to top). |
