NOTE

The System Check option is not available if the calibration is expired.

The System Check routine performs the following steps:

  1. Checks the spray stability. If the spray stability check passes, the routine runs the next check.
  2. Checks the EM Gain calibration.
  3. Checks the mass position and resolution calibration by using the measured EMRS spectrum.

If any check fails, the System Check routine automatically reruns the calibration process for the failed check.

Prerequisites
