As a temporary fix, I set up the availability managers how I wanted them in OpenStudio, then ran the OpenStudio simulation to generate the idf. I then took the availability managers from the idf, populated them with the schedules I wanted and injected them into the model with the OpenStudio measure. Finally, I went back into OpenStudio and deleted the night cycle availability managers. Note that when you grab the idf information, you need to grab the AvailabilityManager:NightCycle object and the AvailabilityManagerAssignmentList object. Also be aware that if you change the night cycle operation, it will add an availability manager and the inject idf won't work.

Maybe not a long term solution, but it gets the model running in pinch.
