A common 'user error' is to set MIND -3.5 even though the distances between heavy atoms are less than 3.5 Å. For example, in a Fe<sub>4</sub>S<sub>4</sub> cluster the Fe...Fe distance is about 2.7 Å, so MIND -2 would be appropriate. A disulfide bond has a length of 2.03 Å so then MIND -1.5 could be used to resolve the sulfur atoms, however if DSUL is used for this purpose MIND -3.5 is required. | A common 'user error' is to set MIND -3.5 even though the distances between heavy atoms are less than 3.5 Å.

If heavy atoms can lie on special positions (as is the case with an iodide soak in a space group with twofold axes) the rejection of atoms on special positions should be switched off by giving the second MIND parameter as -0.1 | If heavy atoms can lie on special positions (as is the case with an iodide soak in a space group with twofold axes) the rejection of atoms on special positions should be switched off by giving the second MIND parameter as -0.1 . | ||
