Tips and Tricks

  • Do NOT use the XDS option to process compressed images.
    It increases the server load significantly, especially in parallel mode (xds_par).

  • Scaling
    Introduction to SCALA


  • How to eliminate corrupted images
    It might have happened that the CCD detector has produced some corrupted images during a
    measurement.

    Possible fix:
    • XDS: rename the corrupted images, e.g., give them an extension ".bad"
      set MINUTE=0 (default) in order to prevent XDS from waiting for the missing images
    • MOSFLM: exclude the bad images via " BATCH ... EXCLUDE"
