Can anyone give a simple example to describe how to set DIPOL for Berry phase calculation?

Queries about input and output files, running specific calculations, etc.

I'm sorry to wrongly put the same thread on the bugreports. I don't know how to delete the thread. Can th administrator help me to delete the thread?

My question:

I have read the manual and searched the forum and found two very related threads:
http://cms.mpi.univie.ac.at/vasp-forum/ ... php?4.1492
http://cms.mpi.univie.ac.at/vasp-forum/ ... .php?4.264
The helpful people ususally gave similar definition as that in manual. But as a newbie, I really don't know how to find/calculate the "center of the ionic contribution to the dipole moment in the cell". Can anyone give me some references/formulas to do it? The simple examples are more appreciable. In addition, my calculation contains hundreds of atoms in a cell. Is there any trick to easily find the DIPOL setting?
