- The ApplianceLoadReduction object is used by a Demand Response service provider to provide signals for ENERGY STAR compliant appliances. See the definition of ApplianceLoadReductionType for more information.
- Duty cycle control is a device specific issue and is managed by the device. The duty cycle of the device under control should span the shortest practical time period in accordance with the nature of the device under control and the intent of the request for demand reduction. The default factory setting SHOULD be three minutes for each 10% of duty cycle. This indicates that the default time period over which a duty cycle is applied is 30 minutes, meaning a 10% duty cycle would cause a device to be ON for 3 minutes. The “off state” SHALL precede the “on state”.
- Instructs an EndDevice to perform a specified action.
- If a temperature offset is sent that causes the heating or cooling temperature set point to exceed the limit boundaries that are programmed into the device, the device SHALL respond by setting the temperature at the limit. If an EDC is being targeted at multiple devices or to a device that controls multiple devices (e.g., EMS), it can provide multiple Offset types within one EDC. For events with multiple Offset types, a client SHALL select the Offset that best fits their operating function. Alternatively, an event with a single Offset type can be targeted at an EMS in order to request a percentage load reduction on the average energy usage of the entire premise. An EMS SHOULD use the Metering function set to determine the initial load in the premise, reduce energy consumption by controlling devices at its disposal, and at the conclusion of the event, once again use the Metering function set to determine if the desired load reduction was achieved.
- The SetPoint object is used to apply specific temperature set points to a temperature control device. The values of the heatingSetpoint and coolingSetpoint attributes SHALL be calculated as follows: Cooling/Heating Temperature Set Point / 100 = temperature in degrees Celsius where -273.15°C <= temperature <= 327.67°C, corresponding to a Cooling and/or Heating Temperature Set Point. The maximum resolution this format allows is 0.01°C. The field not present in a Response indicates that this field has not been used by the end device. If a temperature is sent that exceeds the temperature limit boundaries that are programmed into the device, the device SHALL respond by setting the temperature at the limit.
- The TargetReduction object is used by a Demand Response service provider to provide a RECOMMENDED threshold that a device/premises should maintain its consumption below. For example, a service provider can provide a RECOMMENDED threshold of some kWh for a 3-hour event. This means that the device/premises would maintain its consumption below the specified limit for the specified period.
