Dear Ali,
1, -1, 0 are just spin indexes to tell the code what is the relative
magnetization of the atoms (parallel, antiparallel, or none). if
your system is non magnetic put all 0. or set magn = .false. and put
nothing.
you should look at the examples on Fe and Si as well and learn from
there by comparison.
