Simple Monte Carlo in CP2K

Dear All,

I'm trying to run a simple Monte Carlo simulation of Silicon with a defect 
in CP2K, the only update I want to use is straight forward atom 
translation.  

I have a bit trouble setting up the update moves and ensemble. I suppose 
PMTRANS 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-5_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/MOTION/MC/MOVE_PROBABILITIES.html#PMTRANS> 
is the update to choose, but with traditional ensemble it also requires a  
AVBMC_ATOM value, which I'm not sure what it is.

Should I use a different ensemble or should I also set up AVBMC_ATOM?

Thanks very much for any suggestions!
