You might consider using AnoDe (J. Appl. Cryst. 44 (2011) 1285-1287). This program and its documentation are available via the SHELX homepage. You will need a PDB file name.pdb of the native structure and a file name_fa.hkl that contains the anomalous differences. You can use SHELXC or XPREP to make this file but the easiest way is to run hkl2map and pretend that you are going to solve a structure by SAD phasing. This in turn requires a reflection data file XDS_ASCII.HKL from XDS or a .sca file from HKL2000, Tim Gruene's mtz2sca or the Aimless option "output polish unmerged" (as a processing option under "Integration").

Then you can run AnoDe by:

anode name

which produces a file that Coot can display as a map plus a lot of useful information about the anomalous density.

Could anyone remind me how to calculate anomalous  difference Fourier maps 
using model-calculated phases? I was doing it by
(1) calculating PHcalc from a pdb file using Sfall, then
(2) merging PHcalc with Dano of experimental SFs, then
(3) calculating a map with Dano and PHcalc using FFT program of CCP4.

Now, I've read Z. Dauter's et all paper 
http://mcl1.ncifcrf.gov/dauter_pubs/175.pdf, and it said that their anomalous 
maps were calculated using (delF, PHcalc-90degrees). Why did they use  -90 
degrees?  How does it relay to a (delF, phcalc) map?

Thank you for an advice.
