[Equest-users] Turning off Baseboard/Unit Heater when Fan is active

I am trying to model an industrial-use space with a high volume gas
fired furnace and hydronic unit heaters. For the level of detail needed
at the moment, I am modeling the hydronic unit heaters as hydronic
baseboard. Because of the way the space is used, the hydronic unit
heaters cannot operate when the furnace is in use. Is there a way to
force eQuest to source all heating solely from the gas fired make up air
unit when the fan is scheduled on? It seems to me that the system will
use the baseboard to full capacity first to supply heat to the space
when the fan is on.

Thanks in advance,
