Hi Young-Jin,

With ncs=true phenix.refine will determine the NCS groups automatically.
Since the currently used algorithm is very simple the NCS groups may not
be chosen optimally (making it smart is in to-do list). This is why it
is a good idea to check the automatically determined NCS groups,
especially when you see a message that asks you to push the distance
limit to a larger value. You can look in .geo file (the file that lists
all the geometry restraints used in refinement) for something like
EXCESSIVE DISTANCE to see affected atoms and then check the map to see
if these atoms should be forced to obey NCS and not represent the
individuality of NCS related groups and therefore need to be excluded
from NCS restraints.
Good luck!
Pavel.
