How to 'turn on' district heating and cooling outputs in IDF Editor for EnergyPlus

I am trying to run a simulation using an Ideal Loads Air System to get outputs of District Heating and Cooling. I have run the simulation to get some output but not the District Heating and Cooling. Is there a specific class in the IDF Editor that will 'turn on' these outputs?

Yes, include an Output:Variable for each output you want.

You can include the object Output:VariableDictionary and after a successful run, you will find a file eplusout.rdd that includes every variable that applies to your specific model. The IDF Editor will also parse this file automatically to help prepopulate choices for any Output:Variable. You can also refer to the I/O reference guide, every object (or almost) has an input section defining what each fields are, and also an Output section related to the Output:Variable that apply to the object and what they mean if needed to explain.

Here's the one for ZoneHVAC:IdealLoadsAirSystem
