Hi Myunggi,
With your stated configuration parameters, the bonded interactions
are evaluated using a timestep of 1.0 fs, the short-range non-bonded
interactions are evaluated using a timestep of 2*1.0 = 2.0 fs, and
the long-range electrostatics are evaluated using a timestep of 4*1.0
= 4.0 fs.
Regards,
Dave
