restarting a simulation accurately

Hello,
    Does anyone know how to continue a job from the
restart files where the velocity information will be
read as well as the coordinate information?
    Also, if just the coordinate information is read (with
'coordinates filename', how would you explain that type of restart, all
atoms start from the same place but are kicked in a different direction -
and is this even a repeatable simlation? Would it obtain the velocity
info anyway by default from the beta column of the coordinate file or
does it have to be read in from the .vel file?

Thanks.
