✦ Synopsis
An improved data-acquisition and management system interfaces an IBMcompatible personal computer to a tandem mass spectrometer. In addition to increased spectral resolution and storage, the control system measures the absolute abundance (peak areas) of product ions, and also that of the precursor; these are capabilities critical for collisional activation, metastable ion decomposition and neutralizatio~r-reionization mass spectra. Improved experimental control features include multiple mass range and repetitive scan selection, spurious transient rejection and comparative spectral display.
