To edit the default values, you should be able to change them in OpenStudio's hvac_library.osm file.

Or using the Ruby API to change all the SetpointManagerColdest objects in a model...

min_setpt_temp_ip = 80
min_setpt_temp_si = OpenStudio.convert(min_setpt_temp_ip, 'F', 'C').get

model.getSetpointManagerColdests.each do |spm|
  spm.setMinimumSetpointTemperature(min_setpt_temp_si)
end

I was wondering if there was a way to change this default value so that the next time I added this setpoint it would use 80F as the default value instead of 68F.
