Thanks for your reply! It works! The additional question is related to operation schedule. As we split heat pump into cooling and heating mode. Actually there are three heat pumps that flexibly adjust to fulfil heating and cooling demand. Thus the heating and cooling is splited, as my understanding, the only method is to adjust operation schedule. Is it right?

I am developing a typical office building with air source heat pump and heating and cooling source. I use HVAC template plant:Chiller for cooling source and set condenser type as aircooled. As the system is 4 pipe, how to set heating mode? I find HVACtemplate plant: Boiler but the boiler type does not fit the design conditions. I am wondering in the HVACtemplate: Plant chilled water loop, the chilled plant operation scheme type can be userdefined. Can I achieve it through define userdefined scheme for heating and cooling mode? Oh other ways to achieve it?
