Hi Ahmad,
Are you intending to fix your inclination to 83.6 degrees, or do you just want the prior center starting value to be 83.6 degrees and then fitted? If want the latter case, you need to disable "Lock" and let that value be fit. If you want the prior center value to be 83.6 degrees, instead of the estimated value calculated by AIJ, then you need to disable the menu setting Auto Priors->"Include transit inclination in auto prior update" like this:
If you have a value "Locked", the it is not fitted, so the "Prior Width" in the output report is shown as 0.0000 as is displayed in your output.
