Has anyone updated yet to the recent service pack of chemstation (E.02.00 SP2) on a 7890-5975 system? Is the update worth it, or should we stick with SP1 in the sense of "Never change a winning horse" ? The change to from the original version to SP1 removed old errors but sadly added some new flaws last year…
Sure it's worth, plus improved performance, brings more stability to the system, however it depends on the PC.
Hi Tobias,
yes for sure the service pack E.02.00 SP2 is really useful on a Agilent 7890-5973 GC-MS. I believe that one of the main advantages of using this service pack is the possibility to support faster scan speeds and to control the new Triple Axis Detector of the 5975C MSD series. Also this version of Chemstation allows you to use Gain Normalized Methods that provide a more stable and reproducible response compared to simple method were a voltage offset is applied to a Tune file. The Gain Factor methods help to limit the loss of sensitivity in time due to the detector performances.
thanks for your answers! Then after my holidays I will update the software. *fingers crossed*
