Abstract: A system and method of operating an HVAC system, the HVAC system including a HVAC unit including a variable speed HVAC component in communication with a unit controller, an interface device in communication with the unit controller, and a single-speed system controller in communication with the interface device, the method including operating the interface device to receive a first conditioning signal from the system controller, operating the interface device to determine a temperature differential when the first conditioning signal is received, operating the interface device to transmit the temperature differential to the unit controller, operating the unit controller to transmit a speed signal based on the temperature differential, operating the interface device to receive a second conditioning signal, and operating the interface device to update the at least one set point estimate when second conditioning signal is received.
