I have a design consisting of 32 bit input pin sitimulis problem

ahmed osama

 I am using spectre as simulation tool , my design have 32 bit input pins how i can assign this bits with values

I use vector file but it works fine with single bit , when i increase radix more than 1 it fails

I use sitimulis file but it also fails 

what is the most effective way to test 32 bit input pins in spectre 

Thanks

    this is the error

    Only one connection to the following 4 nodes:         A0         A1         B0         B1     No DC path from node `A<0>' to ground, Gmin installed to provide path.     No DC path from node `B<0>' to ground, Gmin installed to provide path.     No DC path from node `A<1>' to ground, Gmin installed to provide path.     No DC path from node `B<1>' to ground, Gmin installed to provide path.
