  -ZX - maximum shift in Ang. from initial position for -O [-Z1.0]
 
  -t values of 3.0 or more switch to more accurate but appreciably
slower tracing algorithms, this is recommended when the resolution
is poor or the initial phase information is weak; -a10 is preferred.
In case of side chain tracing with -O, sequence will be docked
and output only once CC>30 so poly-alanine tracing scores
can be used to identify solutions as before.

=== How to tell SHELXE about NCS in a molecular replacement solution PDB file ===
(communicated by Isabel Uson) Insert a line
REMARK 299 NCS GROUP BEGIN
before the ATOM (or HETATM) lines of each NCS group (e.g. chain), and insert the line
REMARK 299 NCS GROUP END
after the last of these. The -n option is not needed then. The output of SHELXE should tell you about the fact that it understood the NCS specification.
