Energy-group tables are the way to implement this. See manual, and mailing list discussions, particularly from Sai Pooja and I in the last few weeks.

Note that they will be significantly slower than normal LJ. If performance is an issue, and water dominates the system, you may wish to change the underlying LJ parameters so that the scaled water-water interactions are calculated without the use of tables, and the "normal" water-protein and protein-protein interactions are done with table lookups. This will make more sense once you've read the manual parts :-)
