1. A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system, comprising:
- a motor configured to drive rotation of a fan; and
an HVAC controller configured to control operation of the HVAC system, wherein the HVAC controller is configured to;
determine an operating mode target value of the HVAC system;
calculate an operating parameter target value of the motor based on the operating mode target value of the HVAC system and a control algorithm of the HVAC controller; and
control operation of the motor toward or at the operating parameter target value.

Abstract
A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a motor configured to drive rotation of a fan, and an HVAC controller configured to control operation of the HVAC system. The HVAC controller is configured to determine an operating mode target value of the HVAC system, calcluate an operating parameter target value of the motor based on the operating mode target value of the HVAC system and a control algorithm of the HVAC controller, and control operation of the motor toward or at the operating parameter target value.
