Himanshu's alterations are correct so long as the pdb, psf, and top
files that you point to contain a pre-equilibrated patch of the lipid
you're interested in, with nearby water, using the chain names LIP1,
LIP2, and TIP3 for the two leaflets and water, respectively. You can
have a look at the popc/pope files that come with VMD as a template.
