There is even more information in DOE-2 Help under Volume 2: Dictionary

or tower using wet-bulb temp, only the dry-bulb temp using OA-RESET.

The commands you are looking for are for the cooling tower. See below.

Temperature Control

COOL-SETPT-CTRL

Code word specifies the loop temperature control sequence:
FIXED                         specifies that the loop supply temperature
is controlled to a fixed value, specified by the COOL-SEPT-T
OA-RESET                   specifies that the loop supply temperature is
reset on outdoor air according to the COOL-RESET-SCH.
SCHEDULED                specifies that the loop supply temperature is
controlled to a schedule specified by the COOL-SETPT-SCH.
LOAD-RESET               specifies that the loop supply temperature is
reset so that the valve of the worst-case coil is fully open. The
minimum reset temperature for a cooling-type loop is MIN-RESET-T.
LOAD-RESET is applicable to any loop serving a chilled-water coil (CHW,
PIPE2). It is also applicable to a condenser-water loop; here this
control mode will enable the cooling tower temperature to float with the
load and wet-bulb temperature as described in the cooling tower
sections. 
                                  Since a WLHP loop also uses a cooling
tower, LOAD-RESET is applicable to the heat-rejection side of a WLHP
loop. It does not apply, however, to the heating setpoint of a WLHP
loop. 
                                  This mode maximizes the efficiency of
the primary equipment and minimizes the loop's thermal losses (but at
the expense of pumping energy in a variable-flow loop). Refer to
LOOP-FLOW-RESET for information on how to minimize the pumping penalties
associated with this control scheme.

I believe that the CONT-SETPT-CTRL = VARIABLE provides similar control?

	In DOE-2.1e, you had the option of condenser loop control by
wet-bulb reset.  I cannot figure out how to do that in DOE-2.2.  Any
suggestions or was this option lost in the combining of systems &
plants.
