Dear Charles,

I am doing water refinement (using Xplor 2.46) for a small metalloprotein,
after structure calculation using metal restraints in CYANA.
In my protein, I have the metal cluster which topology I "freeze" in the
wrefine.py script by fixing metals and binding atoms.
The problem I am experiencing is that for certain models I get
extremely large total energies even though all the models are very similar.
For example:

 Average values for potential terms:

type          name           Energy(dev)      RMSD(dev)      viols(dev)

During calculation I get also a message:

InternalDynamics::step: large timestep detected. Halving.

Do you know what could be a problem and how could I solve it?

Kind regards,
