Thanks for your suggestions.

While reading up on how ABMD works, I went through the Tutorial B10, too. I
found out that the Addin for Amber10 described there (LCOD) is exactly what i
was looking for. So i (hopefully) just have to follow instruction given
there.

Felix Rausch

I think with the regular SMD setup using NMR-type restraints, only the
first restraint is "steered" when jar is turned on. Any other
restraints are treated as regular NMR-style restraints, so must
satisfy the syntax rules for those. There may be a way to do multiple
steered restraints, but if so I don't know how.

I think you can do what you want using SMD within the ABMD-formalism.
I have gone over to that type of SMD setup exclusively. You can mix
regular NMR-style restraints with an AMBD-style SMD setup (or any of
the other ABMD-derived designs, probably).
