I omitted mass of fluorine atoms, while I typed. It's 18.9984.

So, the topology file is as follows.


[ atoms ]
;   nr       type  resnr residue  atom   cgnr     charge       mass
typeB    chargeB      massB
     1         P1      1    PF6     P1      1       1.34    30.9738   
     2         F1      1    PF6     F1      1      -0.39    18.9984   
     3         F2      1    PF6     F2      1      -0.39    18.9984   
     4         F3      1    PF6     F3      1      -0.39    18.9984   
     5         F4      1    PF6     F4      1      -0.39    18.9984   
     6         F5      1    PF6     F5      1      -0.39    18.9984   
     7         F6      1    PF6     F6      1      -0.39    18.9984   

And the other things are the same.
