Custom Properties

You can create special custom properties for events in the Calendar SettingsProperties page.

Here you can create a special Category for “Events2HVAC Control”.  Under this new category, you can create one or many special properties that can be utilitized by Events2HVAC when it is processing events.  Note: The category name is not critical, but the names of the properties must match (case-insensitive).

Notes

%Capacity: XX

Tell Events2HVAC that the event is expected to be XX% full based on people capacity of the rooms

Ex: % Capacity: 30

This is only used if you are defining equipment actions that use %capacity to change the %load of HVAC.

Events2HVAC defaults all events to 100% capacity if this is not used.

No HVAC

Tell Events2HVAC to ignore this event for HVAC scheduling.

This is useful if the event is created to book a space but HVAC is not needed.  Multi-day events are good candidates for No HVAC.

 

The screen shot below shows how they look after they are added to the properties.

 

Once added, when you create an event, you can select the property to apply for the event.
