Can’t see MS spectra of Shimadzu LC-MS files

[Adrian-505]

Hello, I just installed Openchrom (Version: 1.6.10) on a mac and I am having trouble opening my files and seeing the mass spectra for Shimadzu LC-MS runs (format .lcd).

I installed all the Shimadzu plug-ins, and I can open them in MS mode but wherever I click on the chromatogram, I don’t see the corresponding MS spectra in the Scan Chart window (see video and data file attached).

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for sharing the file. This variant of .lcd is not fully supported yet. Which instrument do you use?

I use a Shimadzu LCMS-2020 with the LabSolutions software (version 5.53). There are two detectors (PDA and MS), and it can do several MS "events" (2 chromatograms and mass spectra per file), but this specific file had only one.
