CESM 2.1.3 COSP: CALIPSO variables

Hi! I'm trying to get the variables MOL532_CAL, ATB532_CAL and CFAD_SR532_CAL from COSP but the output from the variable ATB532_CAL is zero everywhere. I have noticed that it says "FIX!" in the source code cospsimulator_intr.F90 for the ATB532_CAL variable but what is needed to be fixed?
I have changed the output for the ATB532_CAL variable from "A" to "I" (Output values went from NaN to zero)

CFAD_SR532_CAL is 0 or 1
MOL532_CAL range from values between 10^(-15) to 10^(-6)
ATB532_CAL is zero everywhere which I assume is wrong

Can anyone shed some light on why ATB532_CAL is zero and potentially how to fix it? My goal is to compare COSP with Calipso observations. Suggestions on other, but similar, variables to use are more than welcome.

Code in user_nl_cam:
&metdata_nl met_data_file = '2009/MERRA2_0.9x1.25_L88_20090101.nc' met_data_path = '/proj/cesm_input-data/inputdata/nudging/MERRA2_WACCM_SD/' met_filenames_list = '/proj/cesm_input-data/inputdata//atm/cam/met/MERRA2/0.9x1.25/filenames_2009-2010_L88.txt' met_fix_mass = .true. met_rlx_bot = 50. met_rlx_time = 5. met_rlx_top = 60. met_nudge_temp =.false. / &cospsimulator_nl docosp = .true. cosp_llidar_sim= .true. fincl2 = 'ATB532_CAL:I', 'CFAD_SR532_CAL', 'MOL532_CAL'

I'm running cesm2.1.3-rc.01-0-g0596a97 with the compset FWSD, res f09_f09_mg17 and nudging with MERRA2 files.

Thank you
/Emma
