Can the Duct E+ object be used to make a AirLoop demand-side bypass?

edit

How is the E+ Duct Element typically used? I was contemplating using it as an Airloop demand bypass, similarly to a plant demand bypass with an adiabatic pipe. Tried to add it in between an exiting AirLoopHVAC:ZoneSplitter and AirLoopHVAC:ZoneMixer objects, but got yelled at by E+.

************* Beginning System Sizing Calculations
** Severe  ** Node AHU-1 OUTLET NODE BYPASS connects to no component
**   ~~~   ** Occurs in Supply Air Path=AHU-1 SUPPLY AIR PATH
**   ~~~   ** Check the connection to a ZoneHVAC:EquipmentConnections object
**   ~~~   ** Check if this component is missing from the Supply Air Path
