Constant Flow Multizone Airloop without Reheat, Which Setpoint?

image description

I am trying to model an multizone HVAC system that is constant flow with no reheat. I was looking at this post which is similar but has reheat and uses a scheduled setpoint. A scheduled setpoint won't work for my system since it needs to respond to zone conditions. I tried using Setpoint Manager Multi Zone Cooling Average but I am not sure how to place the Setpoint Manager Multi Zone Heating Average on the same node.

I think I am not using these setpoints correctly. I was looking at this reference and I'm not sure which node I am supposed to place these setpoints on. Are the correct nodes the ones that connect to the heating or cooling coil?
