Question about DOAS and Fan-Coil configuration

For an office building, I have MUA ducted to each zone fan coils, So under the air loop, I have each zone connected on the demand side of air loop using duct VAV no reheat,

And I defined the fan coil under thermal zones for each zone,

So I made the availably schooled of the each fan coil unit to be zero all the time, and ran the simulation,

Results shows that I have zero fan energy after, does it mean the MUA is also off? what if I have supply the MUA air to the zone separate from the Fan coils, (Not ducted to fan coils), in that case, how should I model the MUA and fan coil to avoid them to behave as one system.
