🔌 System Integration
The controller accepts input messages in the following format:
javascriptCopy{
    "payload": {
        "cwSupply": 45.00,       // Chilled water supply temperature
        "cwReturn": 48.00,       // Chilled water return temperature
        "hwSupply": 180.00,      // Hot water supply temperature
        "hwReturn": 160.00,      // Hot water return temperature
        "cwSetpoint": 45.00,     // Chilled water setpoint
        "hwSetpoint": 180.00,    // Hot water setpoint
        "outdoorTemp": 68.00,    // Outdoor temperature
        "hwDiffPressure": 12.00, // Hot water differential pressure
        "cwDiffPressure": 15.00, // Chilled water differential pressure
        "equipment": {
            "chiller1": true,    // Equipment enable states
            "boiler1": true
        },
        "alarms": {
            "cw": true,          // System alarm states
            "hw": true
        }
    }
}
