Are you trying to vary the system CFM or OA CFM? See below for eQuest’s definition of Minimum OA Sch. The minimum OA schedule varies the hourly OA ratio. To create an annual schedule to vary the CFM seasonally you can create an additional set of weekly/daily
schedules, and then set the run times in the annual schedule.<br>
