 +If you press ABORT, the connexion will be lost and you will need to re-initialize
 +Check the log on the MSCservdect window.
 +To resume, check the parameters in the display.
 +The scan number will be implemented.
 +
 +With a 3D window >1, the mosaicity box will automatically be checked
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== Zoom window ====
 +
 +
 +**Box size**: (16 by default) usually not necessary to change, even if there are neighbor spots in the box
 +Int_box: red ellipsoid to integrate spot. The reject area is between the red and the white. Is it necessary to increase the size for the red ellipsoid (0.35 by default)?
 +
 +Changing box size also changes the spot size. Use the box size that gives the highest resolution for the red area (it depends if the number is odd or even).
 +
 +**Profile fitting radius** is the yellow circle. When ON, it display only the strongest reflexions. Increase (from 8 to 10) when there are less spots to have enough strong reflexions within the circle, otherwise HKL might reject too many weak reflexions. Don't use a too big radius because spot profile is different at the center and in the edges.
 +
 +**3D window**: number of consecutive images put together to estimate the mosaicity. Usually it covers the spread of the mosaicity ONCE, but set it to cover it TWICE.
 +
 +**Set shadow region**: the Mask for the beamstop is not critical.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== Integrate ====
 + 
 +All scans are processed
 +χ² should be close to 1
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== Scale ====
 +
 +**Check the boxes**:
 +  * Scale restrains
 +  * Absorption correction
 +  * Anomalous
 +  * B restrains (HKL recommended)
 +
 +Have low reflexions marked for rejection.
 +Scale several times until the number don't change anymore.
 +If χ² is too low, decrease the error scale factor.
 +Exclude frames if necessary.
 +
 +**For SAD phasing**:
 +if χ² is high: increase the scale factor (up to 1.6) and the error model (up to 0.6-0.7), but it might kill the anomalous signal. 
 +Check the orange(merged)/blue(unmerged) plot on χ² : higher signal means higher gap
 +
 +**Use auto correction**: will try to reach a χ² of 1, but we don't know how, so be careful.
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== Report ====
 +
 +The log file contains merged I+/I- an the end of the file and tables with unmerged I+/I- in the middle of the file.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== SAD-Phasing ====
 +
 +The sequence is necessary. Give the source or the signal or define if you have a heavy atom.
 +Software used: Arp/Warp, CCP4-6.3.0, CCP4-6.4.0(Coot), ShelX
 +
 +**Data analysis**: 
 +Grey area 1.3 for anomalous signal (can be used up to 1.0)
 +
 +**Find sites**:
 +Choose the resolution limit (>1.8 Å to distinguish disulfide bonds, test 0.1 Å increments)
 +Check the absolute value and the spread of solutions (a few in the up-right corner)
 +
 +**Site view**:
 +Sphere size correlates with the occupancy
 +
 +**Phase**:
 +High resolution limit; try different resolution cutoffs
 + 
 +**Check hand** (//ShelXE//):
 +You should see the difference, dark red/dark blue, difference of one graduation in scale.
 +If necessary, increase the cycle number so that a plateau is reached.
 +
 +**Phase**:
 +//Mlphase//, //DM-phase extension//
 +
 +**NCS**:
 +//DM// or //Parrot// (a bit better)
 +At least try it if you have more than 1 molecule in the Asymmetric Unit
 +
 +**Build**:
 +//ARP/WARP// for high resolution
 +//Buccaner// for lower resolution (∼ 3 Å)
 +Let ARP/WARP build/refine several times if has difficulties building. Start several times witha few cycles rather that once with many cycles.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== Molecular Replacement ====
 +
 +**Analyze data**
 +
 +**Prepare Model**: Edit the PDB file (delete ligands, waters, side-chains if you want)
 +
 +**Run MR** (//MolRep//): 3 Å by default; rigid body at 3.0 Å, then refine at max resolution
