How to Run SIM and Scan at the Same Time | Agilent 5977 & 5975 GC/MS Setup
You can acquire SIM and Scan data during the same GC/MS run on Agilent 5977 and 5975 MSD systems. In this video, I walk through how I set up a SIM/Scan acquisition method and show the differences between the 5977 and 5975 software setup. I cover: • Selecting simultaneous SIM and Scan acquisition • Setting Scan acquisition parameters • Creating SIM time segments • Building SIM groups • Selecting target ions • Setting dwell times • Matching SIM windows to chromatographic retent
