4. Turn on the Reagent Ion Source as follows:
a. Choose Setup > Reagent Ion Source to open this dialog box
Figure 8. Reagent Ion Source dialog box
b. Select the Reagent Ion Source On check box.
c. Select the Filament On check box.
For tuning, you must manually select the Filament On check box.
Note
If the reagent vials are not at their target temperature, a message appears:
Reagent Vial NOT At Temperature! Please wait ...
The System LED on the ETD module flashes green to indicate that the reagent
vial heaters are turned on but not at their target temperatures (the other heaters
are at their target temperatures).
When the reagent vial heaters reach their target temperatures, the System LED
illuminates solid green.
When the reagent vials reach their target temperature, voltage is applied to the
ETD module ion optics, and when the check box is selected, the filament turns
on and the Filament LED illuminates solid green.
