Well that is interesting,

As was asked earlier, what is the fitted reff from the model? It would be rather non-physical and probably suggest a poor model, but perhaps the bond length is shifted well beyond the rmax which you show sets as 7 A and that is why you are receiving the error.

Bruce and Chris,

Thanks for follow-up. I understand the frustration on your part.

Reason for doubt is I am doing exactly the same thing Chris suggested even before posting the question here i.e. changing the rmax. I have changed rmax to even 9 A whereas shell I am trying to fit is only 5 A (please see attached screenshot) but still getting error log that reff is larger than rmax. I know by default it is set to 3 A but I have tried to change it values more then reff of path but still getting the same error. Please see attached screenshot where rmax I am using is 7 A where as Reff is only around 5 A but still getting the error log.

Regards,
Dev

    Dev,

    I get the impression from your emails that you have not much availed
    yourself of the resources that are already available for learning how
    to use the software.

    At http://bruceravel.github.com/demeter/ you will find the Artemis
    manual.  I'll admit, it's still pretty mediocre, but it's a start.
    You will also find some videos that go a long way towards explaining
    how the software works.

    You may find it useful to spend some time with those things.  I
    certainly think some time spent with those resrouces would obviate a
    problem like "I am not sure if I ... completely ... understand the
    difference of Rmax in artemis and feff."  That, frankly, isn't a very
    good question.  While it is certainly true that Artemis suffers from
    being a program written by a physicist who has no training in computer
    science, user experience engineering, or design, you would have found
    the answer to that question even in the fairly crappy Artemis manual.
