I seem to have circumvented the problem with an EMS script which uses a Temperature Setpoint actuator at the node immediately following the pre-cooling coil and simply hard-sets it to a constant 12.7C.

I'm pretty new to EMS so please feel free to comment if you think there is a better or more elegant way to accomplish this within DB.
