Data Acquisition

The Data Acquisition window behaves the same way as on a standard instrument.

When using an MS Instrument, two additional commands are available in the View menu:

Show Signal(s)

Switches the display of the Data Acquisition window to showing the detector signals.

Show MS Spectrum

Switches the display to the real-time spectrum acquired by the MS detector during a running analysis.

These commands are available at any time if the instrument type is MS and a spectral MS detector is configured. However, Clarity displays spectra only during an active acquisition.

Caution:

Currently displaying data stored as spectra is possible, displaying special data stored as collection of individual m/z signals is not supported yet, it will be added in future Clarity version.
