I have checked the manual and I only have found tolerance parameters for energy minimization, neighbour searching and shake algorithm. Does anyone know how to implement the tolerance for PME?. On the other hand, in the paper Langevin dynamics for temperature and piston

See "ewald-rtol"
(http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/current/user-guide/mdp-options.html#ewald)

> fluctuations are considered, with a damping coefficient of 1 ps^-1. However, in the Gromacs manual Langevin dynamics only includes bd-fric and ld-seed, whose units differ from ps^⁻1. How can I consider the damping coefficent?

That's tau-t when the integrator is sd (see entry for "sd" in
http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/current/user-guide/mdp-options.html#run-control)
