eQuest: setting baseboard schedule, baseboards turning on in model when zone temp is above heat setpoint

I'm trying to set a schedule to set my baseboard heating to either be off in the summer, or (if possible) change the temperature setpoint at which the baseboards turn on (which would be a higher setpoint that the zone...this might not be possible). But when I try to add a baseboard schedule, I get this error message, saying tht I've chosen an incompatible. I've tried numerous types and I keep getting the same message. Does anyone have any ideas? In the summer, in the model it is showing baseboards turning on even though the zone temp is 5 °F above my thermostat setpoint. Thanks C:\fakepath\qqqqqqqq.pngC:\fakepath\cccccccccCapture.JPG
