I'm getting the following severe error for many air loops.
** Severe ** HVACControllers: Missing humidity ratio setpoint for controller type=Controller:WaterCoil Name="AIR LOOP 0TERRA MAG_UFF_SUD2 AHU/1 COOLING COIL CONTROLLER"
** ~~~ ** Node referenced (by controller)=AIR LOOP 0TERRA MAG_UFF_SUD2 SUPPLY SIDE OUTLET 1
** ~~~ ** use a SetpointManager with the field Control Variable = "HumidityRatio" to establish a setpoint at the controller sensed node.
The goal of those air loops is the dehumidification. The designers want to avoid that the RH is greater than 50% in all the zones that are supplied by the AHU.
I'm using the following objects:

A zone that is supplied by that AHU is 0terra:Magazzino:

Shall I use another kind of setpointmanager? I saw that SetpointManager:Scheduled:DualSetpoint works only with temperature (see the field â??Control Variableâ??); it doesn't work with humidity.
