[phenixbb] Neutron exchangeable hydrogen/deuterium positions diverge

Hello, PhenixBB.
I am doing joint x-ray/neutron refinement of a hydrogenated protein
crystal soaked in D2O buffers, and I've run into a problem with
refinement. I hope you can help.
I used phenix.ready_set to add deuterium atoms to the exchangeable
hydrogen positions.
I ran a perl script to set the initial occupancies of those to 0.5 H
and 0.5 D (they had been output as 1.0).
When I ran phenix.refine with riding hydrogen positions or with
individual hydrogen positions, the H and D atoms refined to different
positions.
How can I constrain the H and D positions to be identical?
Regards,
Anna Gardberg
