Dear Amber users,

I tried to run MD by constraint some atoms (NTR=1). I got an error message
"vlimit exceeded" at beginning of dynamics. An input and output are as below

==> mdin
*********************
dynamics
&cntrl
  ntx = 1, irest = 0, nmropt = 0,
  imin = 0, nstlim = 10000,
  dt = 0.002,
  ntcm = 1, nscm = 2500,
  ntpr = 20, ntwr = 500,
  ntb = 2, ntp = 1,
  ntc = 2, tol = 0.000001,
  ntf = 2,
  ibelly = 0, ntr = 1,
  temp0 = 300.0, tempi = 300.0,
  ntt = 1, vlimit = 20.0,
&end

  a = 42.2774713, b = 43.6275041, c = 67.0496168,

Ewald error estimate: 0.1386E-03
-----------------------------------------------------------

vlimit exceeded for step 2; vmax = 271.116268

     COORDINATE RESETTING CANNOT BE ACCOMPLISHED,
     DEVIATION IS TOO LARGE
     NITER, NIT, LL, I AND J ARE : 0 1 65 181 182

*************

However, when I changed NTR from 1 to 0 (no constrain) and removed constrain
parameters (last 10 lines in mdin), it worked fine.

Could you please give me any suggestion?

Many thanks in advance.

Hungie.
