Setpoint calculations with Ruby files

I'm trying to run a measure file on my model. It only changes the thermostat value for some hours in the year's first three months. The problem is first, that loads vary, not only in those hours but throughout the year, even in months with no measure input. And second, it does not specifically lower the demand in hours which the measure decreases the setpoint and vice versa. The Default temp is 21 for heating and I change it to 23 and 18 to increase and decrease the load respectively. Does anyone have an idea of how this can happen?
