Justin is right. I've slipped a bit, that was not the way to set nstenergy. But still, you can save the dipole directly in the edr file. Not from your existing trajectory, but in a new run. Say your dt=1fs, then you should set nstenergy=3 to get your dipole moment every 3fs which you can retrieve with g_energy.

Hi

The dipole is stored in the edr file, which output frequency is
controlled by
"nstenergy" option in the mdp parameter file. Set it appropriately
during your
run (nstenergy=0.003) but keep in mind that it should be a multiple of
the time
step.

nstenergy cannot be set this way; it is an integer indicating the interval
(in
number of steps) for writing energy values.  If the values have been saved
every
2 ps, there is no way to retrieve them every 3 fs; if more frequent
information
is needed, it needs to be saved more frequently.

Hello,

I am calculating the dipole moment auto-correlation function for my
system
which have 128 cation and 128 anion.

I am saving the trajectory at each 2 ps and using this trajectory for
further analysis.

Can I save the dipole moment and three vectors at each 3 fs?



Thanks

Nilesh
