Dear Marawan,

The electronic Hamiltonian in AM1-DH+ is still AM1, DH+ is an empirical correction. If you look further down in the output it should say

| QMMM: *** Selected Hamiltonian ***
| QMMM: AM1

| QMMM: *** Dispersion correction in use ***
| QMMM: P. Jurecka et al, J. Comput. Chem., 28, 555 (2007)
| QMMM: with parameters from
| QMMM: M. Kort et al, J. Chem. Theory Comput., 6, 344 (2010)

| QMMM: *** Hydrogen bond correction in use ***
| QMMM: Kort, J. Chem. Theory Comput., 6, 3808 (2010)

Please be careful if using the hydrogen bond correction for dynamics - it uses cutoffs and thus exhibits discontinuities that may affect your dynamics.

All the best,
Andy
