3.5.4 ELS control panel
The evaporative light scattering (ELS) detector’s control panel displays light scattering units,
photomultiplier tube gain factor, gas pressure, nebulizer temperature, and drift tube temperature.
If Empower software controls the system, the detector’s control panel appears at the bottom of
the Run Samples window. If MassLynx software controls the system, the detector’s control panel
appears at the bottom of the Inlet Editor window.
You can edit detector parameters when the system is idle by clicking the underlined value. You
cannot edit these values while the system is running samples.
