I think you may need to upgrade your version of PHENIX.  In the current 
version, the periodicity is 3.  I have recently been using eLBOW, the 
Chemical Components library and the Monomer Library to improve any 
residue restraints that have short comings.  These are freely available 
at Source Forge from a project called GeoStd at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/geostd

Its included in more recent PHENIX versions in $PHENIX/chem_data/geostd
