Hello,

I'm a grad student trying to put a SWATH library together. To learn how to 
do this I looked up this paper by the Aebersold lab in 2015 which walks the 
reader through the 
process: https://www.nature.com/nprot/journal/v10/n3/full/nprot.2015.015.html

I'm following the protocol which pointed me to download the X!Tandem 
parameters below. Using these parameters, I get the error messages (farther 
below) when trying to search the converted mzXML files using X!Tandem on 
TPP. Any tips? I saw from a discussion in this group in 2013 that this may 
be a parameter issue (Comet search has been running for hours but seems to 
be working/hasn't given any errors) so I'll keep troubleshooting there. 
Thanks!

<note type="input" label="spectrum, parent monoisotopic mass error 
minus">50</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, parent monoisotopic mass error 
plus">50</note>
        <note>PRECURSOR MASS TOLERANCE. This is monoisotopic mass, so for 
non-accurate-mass instruments, for which the precursor is often taken 
nearer to the isotopically averaged mass, an asymmetric tolerance (-2.0 Da 
to 4.0 Da) is preferable. This somewhat imitates a (-3.0 Da to 3.0 Da) 
window for averaged mass (but not exactly).</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, parent monoisotopic mass isotope 
error">no</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, fragment monoisotopic mass error

<note>The value for this parameter may be 'Daltons' or 'ppm': all other 
values are ignored</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, parent monoisotopic mass error 
units">ppm</note>
<note>The value for this parameter may be 'Daltons' or 'ppm': all other

<note type="input" label="spectrum, fragment monoisotopic mass

        <note>This parameter has no effect in k-score scoring.</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, fragment mass type">monoisotopic</note>
<note>values are monoisotopic|average </note>

<note>spectrum conditioning parameters</note>
        <note type="input" label="spectrum, use conditioning">no</note>
<note>For k-score scoring, it is recommended spectrum conditioning be 
turned OFF for best performance. All of the spectrum filtering and 
preprocessing options below in this section will be inactive.</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, dynamic range">10000.0</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, total peaks">400</note> 
<note type="input" label="spectrum, maximum parent charge">5</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, use noise suppression">yes</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, minimum parent m+h">600.0</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, minimum fragment mz">125.0</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, minimum peaks">10</note> 
<note type="input" label="spectrum, threads">1</note>
<note type="input" label="spectrum, sequence batch size">1000</note>
<note>residue modification parameters</note>
<note type="input" label="residue, modification mass">57.021464@C</note>
<note>STATIC MODIFICATION. The format of this parameter is m@X, where m is 
the modfication mass in Daltons and X is the appropriate residue to modify. 
Lists of modifications are separated by commas. For example, to modify M 
and C with the addition of 16.0 Daltons, the parameter line would be 
+16.0@M,+16.0@C. Positive and negative values are allowed.</note>
<note type="input" label="residue, potential modification 
mass">15.994915@M</note>
<note>VARIABLE MODIFICATION. The format of this parameter is the same as 
the format for residue, modification mass (see above).</note>
<note type="input" label="residue, potential modification motif"></note>
<note>VARIABLE MODIFICATION IN A MOTIF. The format of this parameter is 
similar to residue, modification mass, with the addition of a modified 
PROSITE notation sequence motif specification. For example, a value of 
80@[ST!]PX[KR] indicates a modification of either S or T when followed by 
P, and residue and the a K or an R. A value of 204@N!{P}[ST]{P} indicates a 
modification of N by 204, if it is NOT followed by a P, then either an S or 
a T, NOT followed by a P. Positive and negative values are allowed. </note>

<note>protein parameters</note>
<note type="input" label="protein, taxon">no default</note>
<note>SEQUENCE DATABASE TO SEARCH. This refers to identifiers in 
taxonomy.xml.</note>
<note type="input" label="protein, cleavage site">[RK]|{P}</note>
<note type="input" label="protein, cleavage semi">no</note>
<note>ENZYME SPECIFICITY. This setting corresponds to the enzyme trypsin. 
The first characters in brackets represent residues N-terminal to the bond 
- the '|' pipe - and the second set of characters represent residues 
C-terminal to the bond. The characters must be in square brackets (denoting 
that only these residues are allowed for a cleavage) or french brackets 
(denoting that these residues cannot be in that position). Use UPPERCASE 
characters. To denote cleavage at any residue, use [X]|[X] and reset the 
scoring, maximum missed cleavage site parameter (see below) to something 
like 50. </note>

<note type="description">ADDITIONAL EXPLANATIONS</note>
<note type="description">Each one of the parameters for X! tandem is

<note type="description">The presence of the type 'input' is necessary if a 
note is to be considered an input parameter. </note>
<note type="description">Any of the parameters that are paths to files may 
require alteration for a particular installation. Full path names usually 
cause the least trouble, but there is no reason not to use relative path 
names, if that is the most convenient.</note>
<note type="description">Any parameter values set in the 'list path, 
default parameters' file are reset by entries in the normal input file, if 
they are present. Otherwise, the default set is used. </note>
<note type="description">The 'list path, taxonomy information' file must

<note type="description">The directory containing the 'output, path' file 
must exist: it will not be created.</note>
