If the installation is completed normally, please move to the directory 'work' and perform the program, openmx, using an input file, Methane.dat, which can be found in the directory 'work' as follows:
% ./openmx Methane.dat > met.std &If you use the MPI version:
% mpirun -np 1 openmx Methane.dat > met.std &Or if you use the MPI/OpenMP version:
% mpirun -np 1 openmx Methane.dat -nt 1 > met.std &
The test input file, Methane.dat, is for performing the SCF calculation of a methane molecule with a fixed structure (No MD). The calculation is performed in only about 19 seconds by using a 2.8 GHz Xeon machine, although it is dependent on a computer. When the calculation is completed normally, 11 files and one directory

The output data to a standard output is stored to the file, met.std which is helpful to know the calculation flow of SCF procedure. The file, met.out, includes computed results such as the total energy, forces, the Kohn-Sham eigenvalues, Mulliken charges, the convergence history for the SCF calculation, and analyzed computational time. A part of the file, met.out, is shown below. It is found that the eigenvalues energy converges by ten iterations within 1.0e-8 Hartree of the eigenvalues energy.

The files, met.tden.cube, met.v0.cube, met.vhart.cube, are the total electron density, the Kohn-Sham potential, and the Hartree potential, respectively, which are output in the Gaussian cube format. Since the Gaussian cube format is one of well used grid formats, you can visualize the files using free molecular modeling software such as gOpenMol [48], Molekel [49], and XCrysDen [50]. The visualization will be illustrated in the latter section.
