We do not generally explicitly set up pseudo atoms input. The helper
functions calcTensorOrientation and calcXTensor will configure these
automatically.

The format is not quite correct: you need to specify one more
selection (6 total) corresponding to the paramagnetic center. Perhaps
this is at the OO position from above? And please note, that while the
four alignment tensor pseudo atom selections are required, they are
not actually used in the Python implementation.

There is no explicit setting. You have configured the energy term to
use the distance dependence (1/r^3), and that should be sufficient
