Framework Device Status Bar - Gamry Reference 3000 Operator's Manual

Framework Device Status Bar

By default, the Gamry Framework shows a Device Status Bar under its main menu: see Figure 4-5. If you don't
see the Device Status Bar when you run the Gamry Framework, it has been disabled in the Framework Options
menu.
Potentiostat Devices (instruments) that are connected to the computer appear on this bar. The round indicator
associated with each device shows its status:
Green The device is available to run experiments
Yellow The device is currently running an experiment
White The device is connected to the system, but is not usable. This is generally the result of a revision
mismatch between the Framework software and the device's firmware. You can use the
Framework Instrument Manager to fix the mismatch.
The screen capture below shows a Framework screen with three USB instruments connected.
The Interface 1000 (IFC 01004) in this system is shown with a green indicator because it is installed and ready
to run. The Reference 600 labeled My Ref600 has a yellow indicator because it is recording the EIS spectrum
shown on the screen. The Reference 600 labeled Jims Ref600 has a white indicator, showing it is plugged in
but cannot be used. This is an indication of obsolete firmware.
Though no Reference 3000 was used in this example, its status indicator behaves in the same manner
described above.
