spectre unknown parameter

Hi~

I use the IBM 7RF cadence designkit with cadence 5.1.41 and spectre simulator.When I try to simulate a simple circuit using the nch mos devices then I got following error:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Error found by spectre during circuit read-in.

“/cad/IBM/Lib/IBM_PDK/csoi7rf/V1.0.0.2AM/Spectre /models/fixed_corner.scs”

205: Unknown parameter name ‘n_spec’ used to initialize parameter

‘cnr_dgpc’.

"/cad/IBM/Lib/IBM_PDK/csoi7rf/V1.0.0.2AM/Spectre /models/fixed_corner.scs"

205: Unknown parameter name 'mc_sw' used to initialize parameter

'cnr_dgpc'.

Please run ‘getSpectreFiles’ or send the netlist, the spectre log file, identify the problem to support@cadence.com

Segmentation fault

I guess the problem lies in Model Libraries, but cannot correct it for several days.

Please help.Thanks!
 

spectre unknown parameter name

Does anybody have the same problem?
maybe I should update my tools......
 

getspectrefiles

Update the spectre version can deal with it.
Now, I use the MMSIM61...
 

unknown parameter

The spectre in IC5141 does not support bsim4 MOS model.
