Use External .csv file to control temperature & relative humidity setpoints (DesignBuilder/EnergyPlus)

Hi,

I am trying to control my temperature and relative humidity setpoints based on outdoor weather conditions, for which I defined a script which reads external weather data and creates a daily setpoint schedule for the entire year based on a few pre-defined logic which I can extract as a .csv file.

I am trying to define my setpoint schedules based on this .csv file. I was wondering if there is a way to upload this .csv file to define the schedules otherwise the CompactSchedule becomes too long. I am using currently DesignBuilder (v6) but using E+ is also an option for me.

Let me know any suggestions.

Best,

Debayan
