Yes. See my previous message. I explained the contents of the file, which are
also discussed in the manual.

perfect, thanks a lot.
Does this conflict with the bond restraint, e.g. LINCS algorithm, during
simulation?
Again, restraints and (bond) constraints are different.

They both contribute to the energy and forces in the system, but there is no
conflict, unless your starting geometry is horrendous and the restraint force
causes LINCS to crash. Run-of-the-mill energy minimization almost always takes
care of this.
