OCC_SETBACK_CTRL

Occupancy arbitration and setback with standby, after-hours override and a computed optimum-start lead.

Validated application blockBAS · Zone & ComfortIEC 61131-3v1.0.0

When to use it

Use OCC_SETBACK_CTRL when a zone's setpoint has to be arbitrated between a time schedule, a presence sensor and an after-hours override, and the plant should start early enough to reach comfort by the start of occupancy rather than at it.
