How to model 4 pipe air source heat pump using energy plus

I am developing a typical office building with air source heat pump and heating and cooling source. I use HVAC template plant:Chiller for cooling source and set condenser type as aircooled. As the system is 4 pipe, how to set heating mode? I find HVACtemplate plant: Boiler but the boiler type does not fit the design conditions. I am wondering in the HVACtemplate: Plant chilled water loop, the chilled plant operation scheme type can be userdefined. Can I achieve it through define userdefined scheme for heating and cooling mode? Oh other ways to achieve it?
