Water Source VRF System Curve

I created VRF system from OS then export the IDF and changed the condenser type as water cooled, condenser inlet and outlet node name is updated as well.

However, when I try to update the performance curve, eg Cooling/Heating Capacity Ratio Modifier Function of High/Low Temperature Curve or Cooling/Heating Energy Input Ratio Modifier Function of HIgh/Low Ratio curve, those functions require coil entering wet bulb temp and condenser air dry-bulb temp as variables. For condenser type:water cooled, it is condenser water entering temp available not condenser airy dry-bulb temp.

How can I update the performance curve since they require different independent variables ? Will the E+ automatically assume it is condenser water entering temp if water cool is selected ? image description
