Dear colleagues

 

We obtained the trigonal crystals (s.g. R3 or R32).  We processed X-ray
intensity data using HKL2000, which chose the hexagonal axes (a=b;
alpha=beta=90, gamma=120). Then we tried converting the data to mtz using
scalepack2mtz, but received an error message.

 

LW: severe warning - specified symmetry not consistent with cell dimensions!

SCALEPACK2MTZ: Error in space group or cell dimensions.

 

So we could not convert the data.

My questions are 

Does scalepack2mtz accept only "rhombohedral axes" for the trigonal crystal
system? Why is it(if yes)? Do we have to reindex the intensity data?

 

Best regards
