Claim 9:
10. A controller for use with an energy and temperature control system having a heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system and an adjustable energy control device coupled to the HVAC system, the controller having a memory and a processor and being configured to:
determine a base setpoint value for the energy control device;
receive an indication of a duty cycling event associated with the HVAC system;
determine whether the duty cycling event is an offset-based duty cycling event;
in response to determining that the duty cycling event is an offset-based duty cycling event:
determine a first offset value for the duty cycling event for the HVAC system;
determine whether the HVAC system is in a first temperature adjusting mode;
in response to determining that the HVAC system is in the first temperature adjusting mode:
determine a first offset setpoint value based at least in part on the base setpoint value and the first offset value; and
cycle a setpoint of the energy control device between the determined base setpoint value and the first offset setpoint value a plurality of times during the duty cycling event.
