Help for data acquisition
To help you use the
Agilent 6200 Series TOF and the 6500 Series
Q-TOF LC/MS systems
for these applications, the software lets
you perform the following tasks in a single window:
Prepare the instrument
To learn how to get started with the
Agilent 6200 Series TOF and 6500
Series Q-TOF, see the Quick Start
Guide.
To learn more about how to use the
Agilent 6200 Series TOF and 6500
Series Q-TOF with real samples and
data, see the Familiarization Guide.
To learn how to perform individual
tasks with the TOF and Q-TOF
LC/MS, see the online Help. Press
F1 to access the online Help.
To learn more about an Agilent
1100 or 1200 LC module or 1260 or
1290 Infinity LC module, see the
Agilent 1100 LC, 1200 LC, 1260
Infinity LC or 1290 Infinity LC User
Guide for the module.
To learn more about the 6200
Series TOF or the 6500 Series
Q-TOF, see the Maintenance Guide
for that instrument.
To learn how to install the system,
see the Installation Guide.
• Start and stop the instruments from the software.
• Download settings to the Agilent 1200, 1260 Infinity or 1290
Infinity liquid chromatograph and the
TOF and Q-TOF mass
spectrometer in real time to control the instrument.
• See if the 6200 Series TOF and 6500 Series Q-TOF parameters
are within the limits to produce the specified mass accuracy
and resolution with a Checktune, Quicktune or Standard
tune report.
• Optimize
TOF and Q-TOF parameters automatically or
manually through Agilent tuning programs.
• Monitor the actual conditions of the instrument.
• View the Real-time Plot for chromatograms, spectra, and
instrument parameters (both DAD, TOF and Q-TOF) and
print a Real-time Plot report.
• View the centroided line spectrum of a peak or the mass
range profile spectrum of a peak in real time.
