There are only 10 frames (numbered 140-149, [1]) available to the public at the time of the ACA2014, so we'll see what we can learn from these.
After starting XDSGUI, we go the "Frames" tab and load frame 140. We then move the mouse to the place where the beam stop position is (1584, 1542) because the header values are obviously wrong. These values are then entered into the XDS.INP tab to have
ORGX= 1584.0 ORGY= 1542.0
and adjust
DATA_RANGE=140 149 SPOT_RANGE=140 149
because generate_XDS.INP (which is a script that XDSGUI uses) assumes that frame numbers start at 1. We then "Save" and "Run XDS".
Unfortunately (but not quite unexpectedly, given the poor data), IDXREF stops with an the message:
!!! ERROR !!! INSUFFICIENT PERCENTAGE (< 50%) OF INDEXED REFLECTIONS AUTOMATIC DATA PROCESSING STOPPED. AS THE CRITERIA FOR A GOOD SOLUTION ARE RATHER STRICT, YOU MAY CHOOSE TO CONTINUE DATA PROCESSING AFTER CHANGING THE "JOB="-CARD IN "XDS.INP" TO "JOB= DEFPIX INTEGRATE CORRECT". IF THE BEST SOLUTION IS REALLY NONSENSE YOU SHOULD FIRST HAVE A LOOK AT THE ASCII-FILE "SPOT.XDS". THIS FILE CONTAINS THE INITIAL SPOT LIST SORTED IN DECREASING SPOT INTENSITY. SPOTS NEAR THE END OF THE FILE MAY BE ARTEFACTS THAT CAN BE ERASED. ALTERNATIVELY YOU MAY TRY DIFFERENT VALUES FOR "INDEX_ORIGIN" AS SUGGESTED IN THE ABOVE LISTING. IF THE CRYSTAL HAS SLIPPED AT THE BEGINNING OF DATA COLLECTION YOU MAY CHOOSE TO SKIP SOME OF THE FIRST FRAMES BY CHANGING THE "DATA_RANGE=" IN FILE "XDS.INP" AND START ALL OVER AGAIN.
Upon inspection of IDXREF.LP, we find

So all the difference vectors are integral, which gives us confidence into the primitive cell parameters, listed below the table:
PARAMETERS OF THE REDUCED CELL (ANGSTROEM & DEGREES) 41.52 69.10 84.01 90.28 90.43 90.45
Is it a single lattice?
SUBTREE POPULATION 1 1220 2 33 3 7 4 4 ...
Well, almost all (1220) reflections do belong to the prominent lattice.
Next, the program tests alternative origins:
XD,YD computed direct beam position (pixels) on detector given beam position (pixel): 1584.00 1542.00 X,Y,Z computed coordinates of the direct beam wave vector DH,DK,DL mean absolute difference between observed and fitted indices INDEX_ QUALITY DELTA XD YD X Y Z DH DK DL ORIGIN 0 0 0 2.8 0.4 1572.6 1549.6 -0.0056 0.0037 0.9992 0.23 0.04 0.05 0 0 -1 7.4 0.5 1585.6 1560.7 0.0008 0.0091 0.9992 0.23 0.43 0.55 0 -1 0 9.4 0.6 1587.8 1564.7 0.0018 0.0111 0.9992 0.23 0.46 0.58 0 0 1 9.4 0.7 1559.8 1538.8 -0.0118 -0.0016 0.9992 0.23 0.39 0.50 0 -1 1 11.6 0.4 1575.0 1553.8 -0.0044 0.0058 0.9992 0.23 0.87 1.10 0 1 -1 12.1 0.4 1570.1 1545.3 -0.0068 0.0016 0.9992 0.23 0.90 1.16 0 1 0 12.3 0.8 1557.1 1534.2 -0.0131 -0.0038 0.9991 0.23 0.49 0.64 1 0 0 13.8 1.0 1605.7 1513.0 0.0106 -0.0141 0.9991 0.23 0.05 0.06 0 -1 -1 15.0 1.1 1600.7 1575.8 0.0082 0.0164 0.9991 0.23 0.06 0.07 ...
and based on the given origin, the QUALITY is best and the deviations DH, DK, DL are small - at least for DK and DL, whereas the reflections are smeared along the short axis.
Next, the possible Bravais lattices are tested for consistence with the primitive cell:
LATTICE- BRAVAIS- QUALITY UNIT CELL CONSTANTS (ANGSTROEM & DEGREES) CHARACTER LATTICE OF FIT a b c alpha beta gamma * 44 aP 0.0 41.8 68.9 84.1 90.0 91.1 91.6 * 31 aP 1.3 41.8 68.9 84.1 90.0 88.9 88.4 * 34 mP 20.7 41.8 84.1 68.9 90.0 91.6 91.1 * 33 mP 24.1 41.8 68.9 84.1 90.0 91.1 91.6 * 35 mP 42.2 68.9 41.8 84.1 91.1 90.0 91.6 * 32 oP 43.5 41.8 68.9 84.1 90.0 91.1 91.6 29 mC 239.6 41.8 142.9 84.1 90.4 91.1 74.6 28 mC 244.6 41.8 172.4 68.9 90.4 91.6 77.1 ...
Good "Quality of fit" values (0 to 1) are only obtained for P1 ("aP"), and medium-quality (around 20) for two different settings of P2(1) ("mP"), namely those with the middle and the long axis as unique axes. If the short axis were considered the unique axis, the "Quality of fit" is significantly worse (43.5) so this is not an option. Thus, we've narrowed down the space group possibilities; only three are left.
INTEGRATE and CORRECT
To continue after the error message printed by IDXREF, we change XDS.INP to have
JOB= DEFPIX INTEGRATE CORRECT
and then "Save" and "Run XDS".
The program happily integrates

and then goes to the CORRECT stage.
Unfortunately, the automatic space group determination is difficult, because there are too few symmetry-related reflections.

It may be interesting to look at the predicted reflection positions at this stage. So we move to the TOOLS tab and run "Show frame with predicted spots" for frame 140. This gives
The agreement between actual and predicted spots is reasonably good.
At this point, we cannot continue without more information.
