Defining Inlet and Outlet Node Names

Hello, I am writing an ASHP measure on Ruby to be used in Open Studio and am encountering an error. The error file reads as the following:

  ** Severe  ** <root>[Coil:Cooling:DX:SingleSpeed][Coil Cooling DX Single Speed 3] - Missing required property 'air_inlet_node_name'.
   ** Severe  ** <root>[Coil:Cooling:DX:SingleSpeed][Coil Cooling DX Single Speed 3] - Missing required property 'air_outlet_node_name'.
   ** Severe  ** <root>[CoilSystem:Cooling:DX][Coil Cooling DX Single Speed 3 CoilSystem] - Missing required property 'dx_cooling_coil_system_inlet_node_name'.
   ** Severe  ** <root>[CoilSystem:Cooling:DX][Coil Cooling DX Single Speed 3 CoilSystem] - Missing required property 'dx_cooling_coil_system_outlet_node_name'.
   ** Severe  ** <root>[CoilSystem:Cooling:DX][Coil Cooling DX Single Speed 3 CoilSystem] - Missing required property 'dx_cooling_coil_system_sensor_node_name'.

* Severe * <root>[SetpointManager:MixedAir][Setpoint Manager Mixed Air 2] - Missing required property 'fan_inlet_node_name'. * Severe * <root>[SetpointManager:SingleZone:Reheat][Setpoint Manager Single Zone Reheat 1] - Missing required property 'control_zone_name'. * Severe * <root>[SetpointManager:SingleZone:Reheat][Setpoint Manager Single Zone Reheat 1] - Missing required property 'zone_inlet_node_name'. * Severe * <root>[SetpointManager:SingleZone:Reheat][Setpoint Manager Single Zone Reheat 1] - Missing required property 'zone_node_name'. * Fatal * Errors occurred on processing input file. Preceding condition(s) cause termination.

Seems like the DX cooling coil doesn't know where to go because the nodes are not defined. Is there a method that can define the nodes for the system in a standardized way? As context, I initialized a new cooling coil with the following lines (similar for heating coil): new_cooling_coil = OpenStudio::Model::CoilCoolingDXSingleSpeed.new(model) air_loop_hvac_unitary_system.setCoolingCoil(new_cooling_coil)

Thank you!
