Can the QQQ source optimizer app be used for TOF/QTOF instruments?

Question

Will the same source optimizer app used for QQQ instruments work with QTOF/TOF instruments? The app is just a tool to easily create methods with different source settings so it seems reasonable to assume it should work for QTOF/TOF instruments, but it does not appear to come with QTOF/TOF software.

The QQQ Source Optimizer can not be used with the QTOF and TOF Products. There is a recorded webinar that discusses the best methods to optimize source conditions using the addition of MS source parameters in a worklist. Refer to the "Eliminate the Fear of Mass Spectrometry" webinar series in particular the talk on ion sources and the two talks about the QTOF.
