 The SEAMCAT's Batch function allows automation of repetitive compatibility studies by scheduling several SEAMCAT simulations to be done in one run of the programme. This is done by setting up a simulation schedule with instructions on how to change certain variable scenario input parameters in several consecutive simulations. One typical example of using SEAMCAT batch functionality would be to perform multiple simulations in order to study interference probability on identical scenarios with only small frequency changes between them.

A new batch can be created directly from the quick menu button or you can open an existing batch file using the usual open icon. The following menu button can be used for the batch

When you open several workspaces from are opened in the batch mode environment, you parameters can change your parameters be directly modified in the workspace with an unlimited number of times by adding new simulations to the batch schedule until the intended variation of input parameters is fully covered by all entries.You have the possibity  

It is also possible to save workspace results automatically after completing their simulation.

Batch results (Figure 29 #1) are available when the batch simulation is started. A result tab (#2) is by default active indicating the progress of the batch work (#3) and provides interference calculation engine capability (#5). When you press  When pressing the analyse button the ICE is activated and the probability of interference is displayed (#6).

The results vectors for each workspace are also available (#4) for scrutiny.

If you have selected the “debug mode” is selected and still run a batch is run, the batch will stop until you close the log window is closed.
