Troubleshooting the Integrator block 
 
Table 31: Integrator block 
Problem Cause  Things to check  Recommended Action 
Integrator block mode 
is in OOS and does 
not change to AUTO 
mode. 
Read 
MODE_BLOCK.PERMITTED. 
Add AUTO mode to 
MODE_BLOCK.PERMITTED. 
Read 
MODE_BLOCK.ACTUAL of 
Resource block. 
If necessary, set 
MODE_BLOCK.TARGET to 
AUTO. 
NOTE:  
If the mode is to OOS for 
maintenance, then do not 
change the mode to AUTO. 
Schedule  Block is not scheduled and 
therefore cannot execute to go to 
Target Mode. Schedule the block 
to execute.
 
  Check the License Status 
parameter value of the block 
Check whether License for 
additional function blocks has 
been purchased. Otherwise 
purchase the license and then 
upgrade. 
Integrator block mode 
is in OOS mode with 
Block Configuration 
Error. 
Check INTEG_TYPE  INTEG_TYPE must not be 
zero/blank. 
Check TIME_UNIT 1 and 
TIME_UNIT 2. 
TIME_UNIT1 & TIME_UNIT 2 
must not be zero/blank. 
Value of output does 
not make sense. 
Check TOTAL_SP.  TOTAL_SP must be set to a 
valid value and cannot be left at 
0, if INTEG_TYPE is UP_AUTO, 
DN_AUTO. 
Value of output is 
going in negative 
value. 
Check REV_FLOW1 and 
REV_FLOW 2. 
For forward flow REV_FLOW1 
and REV_FLOW 2 must be set 
as Forward, and for reverse flow 
REV_FLOW1 & REV_FLOW 2 
must be set as Reverse.
 
Check INTEG_OPTS 
Flow forward and flow reverse 
For forward flow in 
INTEG_OPTS flow, forward must 
be selected and for reverse flow 
in INTEG_OPTS flow, reverse 
must be selected.
 
Block alarms are not 
reported. 
Read FEATURE_SEL.  Reports are not selected in 
FEATURE_SEL. If features do 
not include Reports, then the 
host must poll for alarms. 
Read LIM_NOTIFY.  Set LIM_NOTIFY to a value 
higher than zero, but not higher 
than MAX_NOTIFY.
