3-10 Scanning techniques
Voltage Scan function
The Voltage Scan function editor is used to set up scans in which the source’s
accelerating voltage is varied, to scan from low to high mass. Use voltage
scanning to scan over smaller mass ranges, but with higher accuracy than
magnet scanning.

Low Mass (m/z) The mass at which the scans in the function start.
High Mass (m/z) The mass at which the scans in the function stop.
Recommendation: Use a maximum mass range where
High Mass (m/z) = 2 × Low Mass (m/z).
