parameter of pcell reset to default value

Hi,I use "schCreateInst" to create some instances. But, I find some values changed that I don't expect. So,is there any way to set them parameter to default.

there are many these cases in my side,can anyone tell me use skill to batch change them.

below are example,

newinst = dbOpenCellViewByType("vis15cb" "pch5i2_5t" "symbol")
intId = schCreateInst(geGetEditCellView() newinst nil enterPoint() "R0" )

    Firstly, this is not a pcell - it's just a normal cell (just for clarification of terminology).

    When you instantiate something using schCreateInst it should really get the default values - you'd have to set them and then call the callbacks to derive any other parameters. It's not clear to me what really isn't working. In order to call the callbacks, you might want to look at  How to call CDF callbacks procedurally from SKILL to update CDF parameters?
