• Differences from regular analysis
Steps in acquiring
PSD data
The steps in acquiring PSD data include:
Practicing in PSD
mode
This section tells you how to use the software to collect
spectra in PSD mode. However, to be successful in PSD
analysis, you need to understand how spectra behave in PSD
mode, and how to optimize acquisition conditions.
Follow the steps in this section to understand how to use the
software. Then follow the steps in Section 7.4, Exploring PSD
Mode, to learn how to optimize the parameters that impact
PSD analysis.
NOTE: Before running unknowns, we recommend
performing the steps above using a standard.
