Table 1–2: MS operating modes: (continued)
Operating mode MS1 Collision cell MS2
SIR Pass all masses Resolving (static)
In MS mode, the instrument can acquire data at scan speeds as high as 20,000 Da/s. Use this
mode for instrument tuning and calibration before MS/MS analysis. See the mass spectrometer’s
online Help for further information.
Use the selected ion recording (SIR) mode for quantitation when you cannot find a suitable
fragment ion to perform a more specific multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) analysis (see
MRM
mode (Page 34) for further details). In SIR and MRM modes, neither quadrupole is scanned,
and no spectrum (intensity versus mass) is produced. The data obtained from SIR or MRM
analyses derive from the chromatogram plot—specified mass intensity (SIR) or specified
transition (MRM) versus time.
1.7 MS/MS operating modes
The following table shows the MS/MS operating modes.

RADAR is an additional mode that allows you to create experiments containing both MS and
MS/MS functions.
