Chapter 3: Installation

This chapter of the IMX8 Multiplexer Operator's Manual covers normal installation of the IMX8. Both
installation as part of a Gamry Framework-based electrochemical-measurement system and installation as a
component in a user-configured system are discussed.
These instructions assume use with Gamry's Framework Software Revision 7.9 or higher.

Initial Visual Inspection

After you remove your IMX8 Multiplexer from its shipping carton, check it for any signs of shipping damage. If
you find any damage, please notify Gamry Instruments, Inc., and the shipping carrier immediately. Save the
shipping container for possible inspection by the carrier.
Caution:
damaged apparatus until a qualified service technician has verified its safety. Tag a damaged IMX8 to
indicate that it could be a safety hazard.

Physical Location

Place your IMX8 Multiplexer on a flat workbench surface. You need access to the rear of the instrument
because some cable connections are made from the rear. The IMX8 is not restricted to operation in a
horizontal position. You can operate it on its side, or even upside-down.
Caution:
circuitry to the metal chassis. Blocking heat transfer from the chassis to the environment could cause IMX8
overheating.
