| Overview
Single Setpoint simplifies temperature control by allowing the user to interact with one temperature value.
Internally, the system derives HDT and CDT.
| Single Setpoint Calculation
Example configuration:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Heat Min | 67 |
| Heat Max | 72 |
| Cool Min | 72 |
| Cool Max | 77 |
| Heat DB | 2 |
| Cool DB | 2 |
| Derivation
Heating Desired Temp:
HDT = Heat Max - Heat DB
HDT = 72 - 2 = 70
Cooling Desired Temp:
CDT = Cool Min + Cool DB
CDT = 72 + 2 = 74
Single Setpoint:
SP = (HDT + CDT) / 2
SP = (70 + 74) / 2 = 72
Displayed setpoint:
72°F
| Allowed Range
Minimum:
Heat Min + Heat DB
= 67 + 2
= 69
Maximum:
Cool Max - Cool DB
= 77 - 2
= 75
Range:
69 – 75°F
| Updating Setpoints from Single SP
If user selects:
SP = 74
Derived values:
HDT = SP - Heat DB = 74 - 2 = 72
CDT = SP + Cool DB = 74 + 2 = 76
| Setpoint Offset Mode
Setpoint Offset allows occupants to adjust comfort preference without directly modifying absolute setpoints.
The UI presents:
Cooler ← 0 → Warmer
Offset Calculation
Example base setpoints:
HDT = 70
CDT = 74
Base single setpoint:
SP = 72
Offset = 0
Offset +1
Effective SP:
73°F
Derived:
HDT = 71
CDT = 75
Deadband remains constant.
| Offset Range Determination
The offset range depends on the configured limits.
Example:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Heat Min | 67 |
| Cool Max | 77 |
| Heat DB | 2 |
| Cool DB | 2 |
Minimum SP:
67 + 2 = 69
Maximum SP:
77 - 2 = 75
Range:
69 – 75
Offset scale:
-3 to +3
| Offset Mapping
| Offset | SP | HDT | CDT |
|---|---|---|---|
| -3 | 69 | 68 | 72 |
| -2 | 70 | 68 | 72 |
| -1 | 71 | 69 | 73 |
| 0 | 72 | 70 | 74 |
| 1 | 73 | 71 | 75 |
| 2 | 74 | 72 | 76 |
| 3 | 74 | 72 | 77 |
| Rounding Rules
When converting Celsius values:
| °C | Raw °F | Final °F |
|---|---|---|
| 25 | 77 | 77 |
| 24 | 75.2 | 75.5 |
| 23 | 73.4 | 73.5 |
| 22 | 71.6 | 72 |
| 21 | 69.8 | 70 |
| 20 | 68 | 68 |
| Offset Rounding Logic
If calculated single setpoint has decimals:
| Offset | Raw SP | Rounded |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | 74.5 | 75 |
| 2 | 73.5 | 74 |
| 1 | 72.5 | 73 |
| 0 | 72 | 72 |
| -1 | 71.5 | 71 |
| -2 | 70.5 | 70 |
| -3 | 69.5 | 69 |
Rules:
Positive offsets → round up
Negative offsets → round down
|HVAC Mode Behaviour
If system capability is:
Cooling Only
Single setpoint range becomes:
Cool Min → Cool Max
Heating Only
Range becomes:
Heat Min → Heat Max
