Thanks All,

I have made a mistake when writing I am running 4.5. Also, Clemens reminded=
me of the spoiler preferences.

As for converting I am on board fully forgoing starting from old sets. Some
have old procedures and hoped to save some bother.

We can all start things anew!

Thanks Again,
Mike

Hello Mike,

Congratulations on getting the console upgrade.

To enable "spooler", type "set" in the command line.
This opens the "set preferences" window. Near the top you will see "Enable
automatic command spooling"
Make sure that option is checked. Then click Apply at the bottom of the window.
And so you should now have command spooling enabled.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a user specific change. If you have a multi user
environment, then this needs to be enabled for each user.

I haven't had any issues viewing old NMR data using the latest release of TopSpin
(even old DRX data recorded with XwinNMR).
However, if you want to acquire new data using exactly the same parameters
used to acquire an old dataset, then that won't work. I think you will
need to recreate the experiments to work with the new hardware. It's not
exactly from scratch since you know what should work. But I think it's going
to take some time. On the positive side, it will give you a chance to really
take the new hardware out for a spin. And I think you will probably be able
to create improved versions of the old experiments.

You mention that you are running TopSpin 4.2
If that is the case, then before you invest any time with this, I recommend
upgrading to a newer version ASAP. To quote one of my colleagues: "TopSpin
4.2 is the devil, and should never be used to drive an NMR spectrometer!"
The latest release is TopSpin v4.5. Though I haven't yet installed that
on any of our spectrometers, I am quite certain it is better than v4.2.

Good luck,
Bob.

Hello Everyone,

We have been lucky enough to get our 700 upgraded to a new NEO console and
therefore can finally run TS4.2. We have two items that have been noticeable
right off the bat.


One is the spooler is not immediately working. Does anyone recall the need
to “turn this on”? Minor issue in the scheme of things but throwing it
in this message.

More importantly, the Bruker rep told us there are issues or compatibility
problems with our older data from this magnet. This is old TS 2.6 data. Has
anyone found conversion methods or other ways to still make this older work useful?

As is common users here are more or less creating all the thing they do form
previous setcs.

Thanks in Advance,

Mike
