Automatic Calibration

10.Select the Peak Weighting Factor. If the calibration includes more than two points, you can apply the following weighting factors to fit points to the curve:

None— All peaks are weighted equally

Inverse Width— Narrower peaks are weighted more than broader peaks

Height— More intense peaks are weighted more than less intense peaks

11.Enter Fit Rejection parameters:

Minimum Peaks to Match— Minimum number of peaks that must meet the matching criteria for this calibration to be successful.

Maximum Outlier Error (m/z or ppm)— Tolerance within which all matched peaks must fall for this calibration to be successful.

NOTE: If the software finds fewer than three matches, the maximum Outlier Error is not significant. Masses are labeled with the specified reference masses.

Saving the .SET file

12.Click Save Settings to save the automatic calibration settings (reference masses, matching criteria, and fit rejection parameters) as part of processing settings in the .DAT file.

If you are preparing Automatic Calibration settings for use by the Voyager Sequence Control Panel, save the .SET file by selecting Settings from the File menu, then select

Save Graphic/Processing Settings As.
