what HVAC template should be used for Split type and window type conditioners in the EnergyPlus idf?

Currently I am doing the building energy model in EnergyPlus, I am confused what templates to be used in the idf editor to model split-type and window type air-conditioners (both are cooling only no heating). I try ZoneHVAC:WindowAirConditioner for window type and I think it works because there is no error displayed after my simulation. Is it possible to use ZoneHVAC:WindowAirConditioner template for split type system? and if not, what are other options? Thank you. Your help is much appreciated. God bless.
