IDF Setpoint Value

Hi everyone, In an IDF file's Schedule:Compact objects that has type "Temperature", what does the value of temperature setpoint mean? For example in a heating setpoint schedule if the setpoint is set to 24 degrees, does it mean that zone temperature will be set to 22 degrees or heating systems will start working when zone temperature hits 22? Sorry if this question sounds weird, I'm new to this.
