5.1.4 Modifying an
Instrument Settings File (.BIC)
In this section
This section includes:
• Selecting a .BIC file
• Modifying for Manual Control mode
• Optimizing
• Modifying for Automatic Control mode
Selecting a .BIC
file
We suggest that you use standard instruments settings (.BIC)
files provided, and modify as needed. However, you can open
and modify any .BIC file as needed.
To select a standard instrument settings (.BIC) file:
1. Open a .BIC file for the mass range you are analyzing.
For information on mass ranges in .BIC files, see
Section 5.1.2, Standard Instrument
Settings (.BIC) Files Provided.
If a .BIC file for the mass range you are analyzing does
not exist, open a standard .BIC file with the closest
higher mass.
Hint: To optimize a wide mass range, select a .BIC file
with the mass of the highest component in the range.
2. Save the .BIC file under a new name. Standard .BIC files
are read-only and cannot be saved.
