Hi All,
I have an Agilent 7700 ICP-MS running MassHunter 4.6. Interesting issue - the instrument tunes just fine but when I go to run a sample, the data acquisition never stops; it continues well past the time it should have taken including rinse program…
Thank you very much for your quick attention. I take advice to use Labadvisor, however, the host computer is a windows 7 system and the built-in net framework is NE3.5, but LabAdvisor downloaded from Agilent site needs Net Framework version 4.7.2 , which…
Hello,
Does anyone know were the signal data for the live signal displayed in the online signal window is stored and/or how to access it in Chemstation Rev.B.04.03[16]? I would like to write a macro to run in the scheduler to periodically grab a live…
I am new to GC. I am trying to make a calibration table for a set of fatty acid standards using Agilent 8860 (GC-FID)
After the derivitization step, analysis of the resulting methyl esters shows only the solvent peak. Usually a very high solvent peak…
