[EnergyPlus_Support] FanPerformance:NightVentilation: nightmanager not turning fan on? Any ideas?

I am trying to reduce the fan flowrate to 30% during night hours...using FanPerformance:NightVentilation

!-specifies alternative parameters for fan. 
!-These alternate parameters are used when a system manager 
!-(such as AvailabilityManager:NightVentilation) sets a specified flow rate for a central forced air system.
