NIST MS search installation

Post by pauljerry9 »

The NIST library and NIST MS search software was installed during the initial GC setup and Mass Hunter installation. During the installation of the GC Image, do we need to install the NIST MS search demonstration software and demonstration library?
If NO, how do I enable the GC Image to access the NIST MS search and spectral library which was initially installed?

No, you don't need to install the NIST Demo if a NIST library is already installed.

To use the installed NIST library, go to Configure > Settings > Library Search, then click on the Auto Locate button. The software should locate the NIST installation automatically. If not, you may use the Browse button to choose the NIST Library installation manually. See here for more details.
