The heating and cooling thermostat setpoint schedules are just storing a request for what temperature that zones. If you don't have an HVAC system or Ideal Air Loads serving that zone, then the thermostat won't do anything. The temperatures you are seeing for Zone Air Temperatures are just the uncontrolled temperatures in the zones based on the internal loads, envelope, and exterior conditions based on the weather file.
Controlling humidity isn't as simple as controlling temperature. Not all system types make use of the humidifying and dehumidifying setpoint schedules. Someone else might be able to point you to a list of which system types use these.

The heating and cooling thermostat setpoint schedules are just storing a request for what temperature that zones. specific zones want to be at at different times of day/year. If you don't have an HVAC system or Ideal Air Loads serving that zone, then the thermostat won't do anything. The temperatures you are seeing for Zone Air Temperatures are just the uncontrolled temperatures in the zones based on the internal loads, envelope, and exterior conditions based on the weather file.
