5 Save the method as X:\MSDchem\1\Methods\DEFAULT.M where "X" is the
drive onto which the software was loaded.
6 Load and resave X:\MSDchem\1\5973N\OFN_SN.M.
7 Verify that the source and quads are heating toward 230°C and 150°C,
respectively.
8 While the MSD temperature zones are stabilizing, create the OFN_SN GC
method.
Creating the GC Method (see Appendix D)
1 In the Status/Settings/Detector screen, set the MSD Transfer Line
Temperature to 280° C.
This procedure is for an HP5-MS capillary column. The temperatures of the GC
thermal zones (injection port, column oven and GC/MS interface) must never
exceed the upper limit specified for the column.
2 If the G2613A Autoinjector accessory is to be used, select the Status/
Setup/Automation pathway and verify that the correct Injector Turret
Size (1 or 8 sample) is displayed.
— Select the Injector (F1) key
— Select Injector Fan "on"
— Select Syringe uL "10" (must match the volume of the syringe in the
Autoinjector)
— Select "Waste Bottle "Use bottle A only"
— Place a wash bottle with clean iso-octane in position A
— Place an empty waste bottle in the correct position
3 Verify that the other Status/Setup parameters are the same as in the
PREP_RUN method (see Appendix D).
