Issue

When the RptEnabled max is missing the SCT shall set a value (why is this mandatory?). After importing/exporting/importing the SCT does not know anymore that the original ICD RptEnabled max was missing! As such it can’t remember if the number can be changed or not. This max should be separated from ICD/SCD.

Proposal

add a Services ReportSettings attribute: rptEnabledMax=Fix/Conf

Discussion Created Status
With regard to Table 24, I think it is either to have the max set to 1 in the ICD file, than adding a new service capability.
In both case the icd file needs to be changed, but in the case max is set to 1 in the ICD ,and ReportSetting to fix, then current SCT should work as expected. 		29 Nov 24 Discussion (red)
Note that when the RptEnabled max attribute is missing, it has a default value of 1 as defined in the schema.

-6 Ed2 Amd1 Table 24 states that when a RptEnabled element is missing within an ICD file, the SCT shall add a RptEnabled element with a max value within the limits defined by ConfReportControl and DynAssociation.

The ConfReportControl definition indicates that if any ReportSettings attribute is set to Fix then the SCT is not allowed to add or delete ReportControls. But even then, the ConfReportControl definition appears to allow the SCT to set the RptEnabled max value for an existing ReportControl, within the limits of ConfReportControl. If this is not
the case, then a clarification of ConfReportControl would be useful.

If IEDs exist that do not allow adding or deleting ReportControls, and cannot accept changes to RptEnabled max, then a new ReportSettings attribute seems useful.

Agree with the last proposal 04 Oct 24 Discussion (red)
I disagree with the proposal.
I think the concept is:
If the SCT can create report control blocks, then it can also set and change the max attributes within the range of dynAssociation.max and ConReportControl. A new service does not help.
If the SCT cannot create the control blocks then it can also not set or change the max attributes, in that case, the max should be set in the IID file, otherwise the device cannot be integrated properly with ClientLN
