Capacitor in dummy cell

Rodeo_First

Hi, I recently purchased a Rodeostat that came with a 50K dummy cell (V0.1 R1). However, it seems that it has no capacitor in C1. Maybe it doesn't need one?

I'd like to know before I first test it in case I break something.

In the Rodeostat pictures appeared one where the dummy cell has a capacitor.

EDIT: nevermind, I tested it and it works. In the photo you can clearly see it has 2 resistances while mine has only 1.

The basic configuration for the dummy cell is just uses a single resistor. The PCB was designed to accommodate additional configurations e.g. a capacitor can be added to create dummy cells with different (dynamic) behavior.
