Perl variables inside Net::Telnet::Cisco Module doesn't work

I am writing perl script to configure Cisco device but Variables inside Net::Telnet::Cisco Module doesn't work and passed to device without resolving.

Please advise.

here is a sample of script:
Code:
use Net::Telnet::Cisco;
$device = "10.14.199.1";
($o1, $o2, $o3, $o4) = split(/\./,$device);
print "$o1\n";
print "$o2\n";
print "$o3\n";
print "$o4\n";
my $session = Net::Telnet::Cisco->new(Host => '$device');
$session->login('cisco', 'cisco');
$session->cmd('conf t');
@output = $session->cmd('ip dhcp excluded-address 172.18.$o3.1 172.18.$o3.20');
print "@output\n";
@output = $session->cmd('ip dhcp excluded-address 10.14.$o3.130 10.14.$o3.145');
print "@output\n";
 
$session->close;

The variables with red color don't resolved.
please advise.

---------------------------

I got the following output:
Code:
C:\Users\Administrator>perl c:\Scripts\dhcp.pl
Can't locate auto/Net/Telnet/Cisco/autosplit.ix in @INC (@INC contains: F:/Perl/
site/lib F:/Perl/lib .) at F:/Perl/lib/AutoLoader.pm line 173.

when I manually resolve the $device variable, I got the following output:
