C.2 Preparing Data
Before Accessing Macros
Before you access the toolbox, open data files of interest and:
• Smooth the data, if necessary, to reduce noise
• Set optimum peak detection and labeling
• Set the display range or zoom as needed
• Resize and organize the displays as needed
• Enable Allow Overlapping Labels (select Peak Label
from the Peaks menu). If overlapping labels are not
enabled, some peaks may not be labeled.
NOTE: Before using the MS Fit/MS Tag toolbox, additional
data preparation is recommended. See Section Using MS
Fit/MS Tag Toolbox.
