gas coil not turning on

Hello, This is an Open Studio Question.
I would like to run a model with electric DX cooling coils and gas heat. The feature under AirLoopHVAC:Unitary Sytem allows one to add Unitary - Single Speed DX cooling - Gas heat - Cycling - Elec reheat. to an empty air loop.
Adding fans, setpoint manager and zones and the model will run but you get no gas consumption.

This is a simple split system with no reheat and fans do not run all the time. " A real world system I see all the time". Is Open Studio just not set-up for these smaller systems types (no economizer, no outdoor air, no fan - on always)? Thank you, Matt
