    <p>Hi Gabriele,</p>
    <p>I wish I looked at the TOPOLOGY section description more
      carefully -- apparently CONN_FILE_FORMAT (with the alias you
      mentioned) is indeed the key. Why it sets the default to
      generating a topology when DFT is used to calculate interactions
      is a bit beyond me. In any case, thank you!</p>

        <div>You can use the topology section to import the coordinates
          from an external pdb or xyz file, which may be useful
          especially for large systems. Try to insert CONNECTIVITY OFF

              <p>Okay, nevermind. Indeed, it was the TOPOLOGY section.
                By simply invoking it to supply the coordinates, I asked
