Water Source Heat Pump Measures Not Working

I downloaded three OpenStudio WSHP measures from the BCL and they all seem to be broken.

The first one I tried was the "Replace HVAC with WSHP and DOAS" measure from Xcel Energy and this gives me an error stating undefined method `setDesignWaterOutletTemperature' for #. I tried to find this in the text file but it was missing.

The next measure I tried was "WSHP with DOAS (More Design Parameters)", also by Xcel energy, and got the same error message. Finally, I tried the "AedgOfficeHvacWshpDoas" measure by NREL and the measure runs successfully, but only the DOAS is created. The Plant Loops and zone equipment are not added to the model. Any idea on why this is happening?

I'm trying to become more familiar with measure writing and how measures work in general, so any tips will be appreciated. Thanks.
