Reference conditions of equipments

I Have Been working with simulation of models and I have some concerns about the REFERENCE INPUT of the equipaments . To explain my concerns I will take a chiller as an example: So , I have imported a chiller from the e+ library to my model and some of the inputs of my chiller are already set.

For instance : REFERENCE COP : 3:05 REFERENCE LEAVING CHILLED WATER TEMPERATURE : 6.67 ° C ENTERING refrence CONDESER FLUID TEMPERATURE : 35 ° C

For the real project I already have the Chilled selected and the datasheet of this equipments selected for my project conditions . REFERENCE LEAVING CHILLED WATER TEMPERATURE : 7 ° C Refrence ENTERING CONDESER FLUID TEMPERATURE : 34 ° C

My question is : Do I have to change this for the inputs the ones I have in the data sheet , or should I leave then and the program will take the chiller coefficients, that define the perfomance curves of this equipament, and do the calculations with the plant input que I had set?

I read the INPUTOUTPUTREFERENCE, but there they say that inputs are reference inputs and do not say if I should change it.

Thank you very much guys.
