How to Model Supply Air Temperature Reset?

Could someone please confirm if I am modeling my supply air temperature reset correctly for a LEED baseline model in OpenStudio 1.11? It should follow ASHRAE 90.1-2007 Section G3.1.3.12 which states, "The air temperature for cooling shall be reset higher by 5°F under the minimum cooling load conditions." My zone cooling setpoint is 75°F and the design cooling supply air temperature is 55°F. I am using SetpointManager:Warmest with the minimum setpoint temperature at 55°F and the maximum setpoint temperature at 60°F. image description

I am following other threads and documentation such as

Plot the supply air temperature versus air loop flow rate and specific zone air flow rate to see how the HVAC system responds.

@MatthewSteen What if I have two different setpoint for two thermal zones, connected to a single AHU?

What setpoint manager is necessary for the heating coil in the above example? Heating room setpoint is 70F.

@Gio that's what the VAVR terminals (or zone equipment) is for. @keb the SetpointManagerWarmest controls both coils. During heating it's 55F and during cooling it is 55-60F.
