20.8.3 Maximum number of iterations

MAXITER,maxit;

maxit is maximum number of iterations (default 6). If the calculation does not converge in the default number of iterations, you should first think about the reason before increasing the limit. In most cases the choice of active orbitals or of the optimized states is not appropriate (see introduction of MULTI)
