    Hello,
    I try to do a Geometry optimisation and the code stopped after 30 lattice optimisation without converging.

    I will like to know what is the variable ( like "maxscl" set to 200 by default ) that have to be change in order to increase this limited number of 30 optimisation.

    the magic flag is

    maxlatvstp

    which is by default 30.
