Hi Hari,

To get the data that you need from Agilent you need to register with 
their earray site here:

https://earray.chem.agilent.com/earray/

And then once you can log in, you should be able to find files with the 
information you need.  The Agilent site can be surprisingly difficult to 
use, but the data is usually in there.

Then once you have the data you will want to look at this vignette:
