SettingDescription
Building: [Building name] Contains controls used to display the monthly hours heating and cooling setpoints are not met for the entire building.
  • Month — Displays the twelve months of the year. Each row contains building setpoints not met data. If a month is not included in the simulation, no values are displayed for it.
  • Time Heating Setpoint Not Met — Displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is lower than the heating setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C).
  • Time Heating Setpoint Not Met While Occupied — Displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is lower than the heating setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C) when people are present in the zone.
  • Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met — Displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is higher than the cooling setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C).
  • Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met While Occupied — Displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is higher than the cooling setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C) when people are present in the zone.
Room: [Room name] Contains controls used to display the monthly hours heating and cooling setpoints are not met for each room in building.
  • Month — Displays the twelve months of the year. Each row contains room setpoints not met data. If a month is not included in the simulation, no values are displayed for it.
  • Time Heating Setpoint Not Met — For individual rooms, displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is lower than the heating setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C).
  • Time Heating Setpoint Not Met While Occupied — For individual rooms, displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is lower than the heating setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C) when people are present in the zone.
  • Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met — For individual rooms, displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is higher than the cooling setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C).
  • Time Cooling Setpoint Not Met While Occupied — For individual rooms, displays the sum of the hours in each month in which the zone temperature is higher than the cooling setpoint by 0.36° F (0.2° C) when people are present in the zone.
