Sorry for the necropost. I had watched the METAS video and they did not go into any details on how to accomplish this. Going through this thread, I too am curious how to derive the coefficients for an unknown set.
The last time I did this, I used one of the local members Matlab scripts. I would like to try this with METAS. Any pointers to save my hair are appreciated.

I just followed the instructions by alan.bain posted a bit further up:
(You have to open a measurement file first)

Right-click on the file of measurements, then select Database / Fit Calibration Standard Model (as per the screenshot)
You then choose which type of standard it is and which parameters you don't want to adjust (I would suggest that initially you reduce the set size e.g. remove L2/L3 from the fit for a short) and hit "Start Optimization". If you try and fit too many it can get into "Not Responding" state which is a bit poor!
