The process controls allow processes to be run before and after the acquisition. The
Pre-Run
control is used to specify the name of a process that is run before
acquisition of the files in the sample list.
The Post-Run control is used to specify the name of a process which is run after
acquisition of the files in the sample list. This could be used, for example, to switch
the instrument out of operate and to switch off various gases.
To run a process after each sample in the sample list has been acquired:

Process
column and enter the name of the
process to be run for each of the samples.

The MassLynx Options dialog is accessed by choosing Options from the
