Couple things to check off the top of my head:
- Is anything connected to (or writing to) INITI?
- Is there any chance that the setting for INCOPT somehow got changed?

Hello all,
We are looking into some strange behavior after a recent upgrade from a 
CP30 to an FCP270. A PIDA block was set to be Proportional Derivative, 
MODOPT=3, PBAND = 125, INT=0.075 (INT is BTIME in PD mode).  The BCALCI 
and FBK were both connected to the PIDA's own .OUT parameter.  The Period 
is a 3, Phase is a 2.  I think the BPC of the CP30 and FCP270 are both .5 
seconds.

Behavior
In the FCP270, the output drives to the low output limit.  It's as though 
the loop is in open loop control.  Looking at trends indicate that this 
loop was controlling in the CP30.  The configuration is identical to what 
it was in the CP30.

Any advice on what to check.

Thanks,
David
