| 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
