Problem with control of radian floor

Hello everybody

I'm doing a simulation for a heating floor system and cooling floor system.

To make this system, first I have assigned the Internal construction source on the floor of my building, after in the thermal zone I have assigned to each zone a ZoneHVAC: Low Temperature Radiant: variable Flow assigning schedules thermostat, both winter and summer and fractional Schedules of operation in the equipment.

After I’ve done two circuits Empty plant loop, one for the cooling circuit and other for the heating circuit assigning the Zone HVAC: Low Temperature Radiant: Variable Flow to the corresponding circuit, these circuits are formed to: variable pump + bolier/chiller and bypass piper + piper +piper+ Low Temperature Radiant: variable Flow + piper.

In the set point manager of these circuits I have assigned the water outlet temperature, being these 15 degrees for the cooling and 35 degrees for the heating circuit with a tolerance of ± 1 degree this.

The problem is, how to go to the open result viewer is able to see that the temperature inside the building does not follow the set point thermostats, and the value of the power consumed in the open result viewer gives zero I would appreciate any help or advice to solve my problem and apologize for my low level English.
