How to set the schedule on/off for hot water pump in OpenStudio?

Due to my study of solar based vapor absorption chiller, I have completed the schedule for pump on/off control (in terms of chilled water and condenser regarding thermostat of FCU). However, the hot water pump still run all periods in the year (always activate). I would like to set the on/off for hot water pump as my need. Hence, please suggest me if it possible that I use the schedule manager (valve on/off) or others which is more suitable function?

please guide me.

OpenStudio can just assign a pump mass flow rate schedule, but it is the configuration of rated mass flow rate, not an actual mass flow rate. If you want to control the schedule on/off for hot water pump, I suggest you should work on the IDF file. Using EMS (EnergyManagementSystem) to control the status.
