Override Heat Pump Thermostat Control Logic

I'm trying to model different thermostat control logics for an AirLoopHVAC:UnitaryHeatPump:AirToAir:Multispeed with DX coils. I'm able to institute deadbands by changing component availabilities using EMS, but now I would like to control the speed, speed ratio, and cycling ratio. However, I do not see any EMS actuators for speed or the speed and cycling ratios in the EMS Application Guide. Any suggestions on how I can accomplish this? Thanks.
