Mechanical Ventilation

Hello, I'm new to use Openstudio. I have a problem about the setpoint of temperatures. I want a simple Air Loop without heating and cooling that can take the outside air. The problem is that I want that it take air just when the outside air temperature is useful. I explain: I want inside a temperature range from 15° to maximum 20°C so the outside air must enter just when 1- inside temperature is less than 15°C and outside temperature is higher than inside air temperature; 2- inside temperature is higher than 20°C and outside temperature is less than inside temperature;

if there aren't these cases then the ventilation are not necessary and the plant doesn't must take the outside air.

For having this plant I need two thermostats that check the temperature and that working together: one inside and one outside. Is it possible?

I Hope that even with my bad English you can still understand ... Thanks for any help
