Waters Method Export Failure (Masslynx 4.2 SCN986) Will Thompson  2020-09-23 10:09
 

Hi Brian et al

We have recently upgraded two of our Waters TQ-S systems to Windows 10, and purchased licenses for Masslynx 4.2 SCN986 to do this upgrade. When trying to export *.exp methods for the instrument, we are now getting errors that the method cannot be exported. I am pasting in the long text of the method below. Do you have any hints from this text on whether or not it is a masslynx version issue, or something else? We have confirmed the method export is functional on MassLynx 4.2 SCN1007, which runs on the TQ-XS. I have asked Waters if there is a more recent upgrade for the TQ-S, or if we can run SCN1007 on the TQ-S. Maybe there are other questions you guys can ask your Waters contacts?

This would mean that any Waters TQ-S users who upgrade to Windows 10 will not be able to export methods from Skyline any more... :(

Cheers,

Will
