[GSAS-II] Poroblem with X, Y instrument parameters

I performed a refinement for LaB6 and the X, Y instrument parameters seems to be wrong. I got the values X=1.848 and Y=-4.186 and when substituted in the equation gam = X/cos(theta) + Y*tan(theta) it returns negative values for 2theta > 53 degrees. The values calculated with the equation above are also different from the ones listed in the gam column of the "Reflection Lists".
I also noted that the values for U, V and W do match the ones in the "sig" column of the "Reflection lists" (using U*tan^2(theta) + V*tan(theta) + W for sig).
It seems that Gsas is computing "gam" with different values of X and Y than the ones showing on "Instrument Parameters". Help please!
Thanks in advance,Cássio M. dos Santos
