Fred,not in the case of Type668 because that value is a parameter and not an input (ie it is set once for the simulation). We do have some other heat pump models that are multistage (and a multistage controller that goes with it). With the components that are in the standard TESS HVAC library, you'd have to use multiple Type668s in order to model that.

Is it possible to treat the Type668 as a VME?You can input the number of heat pumps into the component to scale the performance map.Therefore, if you have simultaneous heating and cooling, will x heat pumps cover the cooling and y heat pumps cover the heating?
