Allow connecting a VRF Terminal from "MyModel" to a VRF System
Enhancement Request
I would like to be able to add the ZoneHVAC:TerminalUnit:VariableRefrigerantFlow object to an outside air system. It appears that currently this object can only be added as a zone terminal.
This will become more important as VRF systems are modeled because they are becoming more integrated with the ventilation portions of the systems (with dedicated VRF coils to temper the ventilation air).
Detailed Description
Possible Implementation
@Ski90Moo What's the issue here? I can drag a VRF Terminal to an AirLoopHVAC supply side or Outdoor Air System without issue.
Yes, but there is no way to connect this terminal unit to an AirConditioner:VariableRefrigerantFlow object.

That's a separate issue. the VRF Controller doesn't allow you drag a terminal from "My Model" to the drop zone.
Anyways, until I fix thatn drop a terminal onto the VRF Controller first (and don't add a thermal zone to it) and then go to the AirLoopHVAC, and drag that one from "My Model" and it'll work.
