DRAFT DEFINITION
The specific scan function or process that will record the precursor ion or ions of any selected product ions.
Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission

-For sector instruments:
+The specific scan function or process that will record the [[precursor ion]] or ions of any selected [[product ion]]s.}}
-.	Mass selection followed by ion kinetic energy analysis- If a precursor ion is selected by a magnetic sector all product ions formed from it in the field-free region between the magnetic sector and a flowing electric sector can be identified by scanning an ion kinetic energy spectrum.
-.	Linked scan at constant B/E or at constant E2/V ?????????????????????????? Both of these linked scans give a spectrum of all product ions formed from a pre-selected precursor ion.
