Generally, there are several points to note: Arbin machines typically have a working ambient temperature range of 0°C to 30°C. Therefore, please prepare the air-conditioning system accordingly. The power grid system must be prepared to match the machine’s input power requirements. For example, some machines require single-phase power input, while […]

Arbin systems will be shipped with a computer that includes the full software kit pre-installed. The system hardware setup is simple: customers can easily set it up themselves by connecting the cycler to the computer and auxiliary devices using Ethernet cables. Figure 1: Example TCP/IP Connection to Arbin Main System […]

Normal bank wire transfer is preferred. We avoid LC. Arbin’s standard payment mode is 40% – 40% – 20%. The first 40% is due right after the PO is received. Production starts only after Arbin’s bank account receives this payment. Lead time counts from this moment, not from PO receipt. […]

This error occurs only when the Channel Based Voltage Clamp option is unchecked in ArbinAdvSys.cfg. This means all IV channels on the same IV channel board share one voltage clamp/voltage check. The MITS software must ensure all schedules on the same IV board channels share the same Voltage Clamp setting; […]

This error means the Aux channel lost communication with IV channels. It usually occurs when the Batch/Mapping file was created or modified without downloading it to the cycler. Downloading the Batch/Mapping file resolves this issue: If this does not resolve the issue, check the cable connection from the Aux module […]

Installing a battery inside the chambers or glovebox is optional, Arbin can integrate it if customers need it for testing. Arbin offers an 8-zone temperature chamber for battery testing (MZTC) with an operating temperature of 10-60C and for cells rated up to 60A. Connections are made easy with the cables […]

There are several way to connect to the DUT as follows: Individual cables Individual cell holders (coin cells, cylindrical cells, flat/pouch cells) Trays for holding multiple cells (coin cells, cylindrical cells, flat/pouch cells) Racks for organizing cells Chambers We will go to each method one by one as follows: 1. […]

The “IR Inf” error occurs when the system fails to obtain a valid result during an Internal Resistance (IR) measurement step. This typically happens when the measurement conditions are not sufficient to produce a reliable calculation, causing the system to return an infinite (invalid) resistance value and stop the test. […]

The answer is yes and no. Yes, if those chambers use the same communication protocol. For example, Votsch VT4002 and Weiss WT20/40 use the Votsch L4006 protocol. If you have these two chambers, you only need one MTCI unit. However, if you have another chamber like Espec SU-241 that uses […]

Yes. Arbin Data Watcher software (Version 2.2.217 and later) can do this. In Data Watcher software, click “Edit Chart Template”. From the Model dropdown, select “CycleCompare”. Return to the main window of Data Watcher. In the axis configuration, you can select the physical quantity for the X, Y1, and Y2 […]

The “Step Control Error Check Unsafe” warning indicates that the system has detected a significant deviation between the expected (configured) output and the actual measured output during a test step. They are designed to detect open circuits or short circuits caused by loose IV cable connections, it also detects abnormal […]

In some cases, the charge or discharge current may be significantly lower than the configured value, or even close to zero. This issue is typically caused by software configuration limits or hardware-related problems. This article provides a structured troubleshooting guide to help identify and resolve the issue efficiently. Symptoms You […]

This error indicates too much data logged at a very short period of time. Check the schedule, make sure the data log setting is appropriate. Please open the schedule and locate the Log Limit: Then check the following points: Logging interval (time between data points)Many Arbin machines can acquire data […]

In some cases, users may successfully configure (map) an auxiliary channel, but the corresponding auxiliary values do not appear during test execution. This issue is typically caused by missing schedule assignment or incomplete auxiliary channel configuration within the schedule. Possible Causes No schedule or an incorrect schedule is assigned to […]

In some situations, a schedule may stop immediately after it starts. This behavior usually occurs when certain safety conditions are not met or when required devices are not properly connected. The system automatically stops the schedule to prevent unexpected behavior, hardware damage, or unsafe operating conditions. This article provides common […]
