You are now ready for the batch fit operation - almost. It is a good idea to do a short test by placing the cursor into one of the sample columns on the Results sheet and execute the menu command Fit current sample. Instead of doing the batch fit for all entered samples, the analysis is done for the selected sample only. This way you can test if the loading of the spectra and the fit routine works as you think.

Execute the Go! command in the batch control window and watch the starting activity. SCOUT will load the input spectra, indicate the sample under investigation in the top of the batch control window, start the fit and enter the final result in the 'Results' page. If you have defined 'Optical functions' their values are written to the batch control window underneath the results of the fit parameters.

The selected pre-fit set and the achieved fit deviation is entered as well:

You should now inspect the results a little closer.
