Important
Environmental Concerns!
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made chemicals can affect the earth’s naturally occurring stratospheric ozone layer when released to the atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants that contain Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (CFCs) and those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and
Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing these compounds have the same potential impact to the environment. Trane advocates the responsible handling of all refrigerants-including industry replacements for CFCs such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Responsible Refrigerant Practices!
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are important to the environment, our customers, and the air conditioning industry. All technicians who handle refrigerants must be certified. The Federal Clean Air Act
(Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling, reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these service procedures. In addition, some states or municipalities may have additional requirements that must also be adhered to for responsible management of refrigerants. Know the applicable laws and follow them.
WARNING
Contains Refrigerant!
System contains oil and refrigerant under high pressure. Recover refrigerant to relieve pressure before opening the system. See unit nameplate for refrigerant type. Do not use non-approved refrigerants, refrigerant substitutes, or refrigerant additives.
Failure to follow proper procedures or the use of nonapproved refrigerants, refrigerant substitutes, or refrigerant additives could result in death or serious injury or equipment damage.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding
Required!
All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding as described in
NEC and your local/state electrical codes. Failure to follow code could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Required!
Installing/servicing this unit could result in exposure to electrical, mechanical and chemical hazards.
• Before installing/servicing this unit, technicians
MUST put on all PPE required for the work being undertaken. ALWAYS refer to appropriate MSDS sheets and OSHA guidelines for proper PPE.
• When working with or around hazardous chemicals,
ALWAYS refer to the appropriate MSDS sheets and
OSHA guidelines for information on allowable personal exposure levels, proper respiratory protection and handling instructions.
• If there is a risk of arc or flash, technicians MUST put on all PPE in accordance with NFPA 70E or other country-specific requirements for arc flash protection, PRIOR to servicing the unit.
Failure to follow instructions could result in death or serious injury.

WARNING
Hazard of Explosion and Deadly Gases!
Never solder, braze or weld on refrigerant lines or any unit components that are above atmospheric pressure or where refrigerant may be present. Always remove refrigerant by following the guidelines established by the EPA Federal Clean Air Act or other state or local codes as appropriate. After refrigerant removal, use dry nitrogen to bring system back to atmospheric pressure before opening system for repairs. Mixtures of refrigerants and air under pressure may become combustible in the presence of an ignition source leading to an explosion. Excessive heat from soldering, brazing or welding with refrigerant vapors present can form highly toxic gases and extremely corrosive acids.
Failure to follow all proper safe refrigerant handling practices could result in death or serious injury.

General Information
Unit Description
Unit Nameplate.
The unit nameplate is located in the left hand end pocket, behind the control box. It includes the unit model number, serial number, electrical characteristics, and other pertinent unit data.
Factory Shipment.
Before shipment, each unit is leaktested and run-tested for proper control operation.
Access.
A three-panel front access of the unit ventilator allows for speedy set-up during field commissioning. This design allows for the end pocket of the unit ventilator to be open while the fan (airside) section stays closed.
End Pockets.
Access for piping and controls is made through the unit ventilator’s end pockets.
Coil Connections.
The coil headers and drain connections are made within the unit chassis to allow a tight seal and help prevent air leakage around the coil. The connection sizes vary dependent upon type of coil combination specified.
Coil type
Hydronic cooling (main) coil or
Heating/cooling changeover coil
Heating (auxiliary) coil
Steam heating coil
Direct expansion coil
Size (in.)
3/4 in. nominal

5/8 in. ID
1 in. FNPT
3/8 in. OD liquid
7/8 in. OD suction
Unit Drain Pan.
The drain pan is dual-sloped for effective condensate removal. It is made from a noncorrosive material to help eliminate issues associated to leaking or standing water. It may be easily removed for cleaning. The drain pan connection size for all Trane VUVE models is 7/8 in. OD.
Motor.
Motors for the VUVE model do not include an external fan bearing on the end of the fan shaft. This helps avoid issues related to fan bearing maintenance (oiling is not needed), and/or bearing replacement.
Filters.
Filter sizing for the unit ventilator are an off-theshelf design to reduce or help eliminate local stocking of the filters. Options include throwaway filters, MERV 8, and
MERV 13 filters.
Sliding Fan Deck.
Convenient access to the fan motor and wheels for maintenance and serviceability may be made through Trane’s easy-slide fan deck design.
Note: Ground wire must be reconnected if removed for service of fan deck.
Outside-Air/Return-Air Dampers.
The outside-air/ return-air damper is a one piece, linkage free design resulting in a superior air-tight seal.
Options
Field-Installed Controls (Option).
The unit comes equipped with a fan speed switch, damper blade (only), and an optional low temperature detection.
Customer Supplied Terminal Interface (CSTI)
(Option).
Units containing the end device control design will incorporate a pre-wired, selected control components to a terminal strip for wiring a field-provided controller and temperature sensor.
Note: For controller operation malfunction of any non-
Trane, field installed controls, consult the literature or technical support of the controls manufacturer.
Tracer ZN520 Control Package (Option).
The Tracer
ZN520 electronic digital controller is a factory installed, tested and commissioned LonTalk ® certified design. It may be used in a stand-alone control scheme, or as part of a building automation system. The controller is pre-wired to Trane selected control components best suited for room comfort. For more information on the Tracer ZN520 unit controller operation and service issues, refer to
CNT-SVX04A-EN (Installation, Operation, and
Programming Guide: Tracer ZN520 Unit Controller), or the most recent version.
Tracer UC400 Control Package (Option).
The Tracer
UC400 electronic digital controller is a factory installed, tested and commissioned BACnet ® certified design. The
Tracer UC400 operates as a single zone VAV controller and ramps fan speed based on space load. It may be used in a stand-alone control scheme, or as part of a building automation system. The controller is mounted, pre-wired, and pre-programmed to selected control components best suited for room comfort. For more information on the
Tracer UC400 unit controller operation and service issues, refer to BAS-SVX48B-EN (Installation, Operation, and
Programming Manual: Tracer UC400 Programmable
Controller), or the most recent version.
OA/RA Actuator (Option).
The OA/RA actuator provides true spring-return operation for positive close-off of the OA/RA damper. The spring return system of the actuator closes the outside damper if power is lost to the building. When ordered with factory controls, the actuator is a 3-point floating design. A 2 to 10 Vdc actuator is available when other than Trane controls are specified.
Refer to
for OA/RA technical data.
Note: Because the damper actuator is a spring return type an inner spring will close the damper upon loss of power. If the need to service or replace the actuator is required, the spring must be “loaded” for the damper to function properly. The term loaded means that the blade must be held in the return air position upon replacement of the actuator.

General Information
Face and Bypass Actuator (Option).
The face and bypass damper actuator incorporates a direct couple design. It provides electronic protection against overload.
A limit switch is not included, nor required as part of the design. When reaching the damper end position, the actuator automatically stops. The gears can be manually disengaged with a button on the housing. Refer to
for face and bypass actuator specifications.
Modulating Water Valves (Option).
The modulating control valve provides optimum control of hot and chilled water flow in various heating and cooling applications.
They are designed to provide sinusoidal valve actuator travel and operate silently, resisting water hammer.
The actuator on the valve is a 24V, 3-point floating type.
Refer to Table 3 for modulating water valve specifications.
Isolation Valve (Option).
The isolation valve is a two position 24V, spring return type valve. It provides added control in heating and cooling applications when used in conjunction with the face and bypass damper.
On heating coils, and two-pipe changeover applications, the valve is normally open to help prevent the coil from freezing in-case of power loss.
For cooling, the valve is normally closed and opens when
there is a call for cooling. Refer to Table 4, p. 9 for isolation
valve specifications.

ECM Application Notes
The new Trane BLDC system has some notable differences to traditional designs.
RPM Mode
The motors are programmed from the factory to run in rpm mode and will not change rpm based on external static pressure, except at the performance limits of the motor/controller. For ducted units, the units are shipped with the rpm set for 0.2 in. ESP for High, Medium, and Low speeds. The speeds can for high, medium, and low operation, but should not be changed for the electric heat actuation speeds.
Generally, the fans deliver less cfm for the same rpm, if the static is increased and the power will decrease. The fan will deliver more cfm for the same rpm, if the static is decreased and the fan power will increase. A unit with high static configuration should not be used to free-deliver air
(i.e., with no ducting attached).
Field Power Wiring
Note: This product uses an electronic variable speed motor control, which includes a line reactor to minimize power line harmonic currents. It is recommended that good wiring practices be followed to manage building electrical power system harmonic voltages and currents to avoid electrical system problems or other equipment interaction.
Performance Boundaries
While the speeds of the fan motors can be adjusted, never program a fan speed higher than 1700 rpm, or lower than
450 rpm. In many cases, units configured for high-static operation will not achieve the desired rpm if the ESP of the unit is too low, or the unit is allowed to “free-discharge.”
The ECM engine contains settings that will limit the output power of the motor under these overload conditions. If the motors cannot achieve rpm close to the target for a specific period of time, the unit will disable electric heat and fanstatus indicators.
MCA/MFS and Power Draw
The Trane BLDC motors have variable output but are shipped at specific settings to deliver proper performance and reliability. The power draw indicated in the catalogue indicates the power consumed when applied properly (as shipped and with the nominal ESP applied). However, the nameplate of the unit indicates the maximum input draw of the motor, as the motor settings can be changed to draw more power.
Electric Heat Relays
For quiet operation, the new BLDC units employ power relays instead of definite purpose contactors for electric heat actuation. The coils of multiple relays are hooked in parallel to simulate a multi-pole contactor, as shown in
Figure 1 . In Figure 1 , two sets of three relays are used to
10 perform the function of a two 3-pole contactors.
Figure 1.
Sample arrangement: electric heat relay
Troubleshooting Other Unit Functions
In some cases, the normal or abnormal operation of the
BLDC system may interact with other components in the system. Generally, verification of the engine and adapter boards’ wiring and configuration should be checked if there are unexplained abnormalities in other areas of the unit:
1.
Valve operation
2. Electric Heat operation
3. Changeover sensor operation
4. Damper operation
5. Condensate overflow switch
A high degree of protection is provided on electric heat units. If electric heat fails to actuate, it may be because of one of the following events:
1.
Fans are failing to meet target speed. If a second motor is not present, all settings for speeds for Motor 2 should be set to 0000.
2. Hot water may be available in the changeover coil.
3. The connection to analogue input 1 on the Tracer ZN controller may be reversed in polarity.
4. Target speeds for motors may be set too high: a. The
parameter may be set incorrectly.
b. The
parameter may be set incorrectly.

Pre-Installation
Jobsite Inspection
Always perform the following checks before accepting a unit:
1.
Verify that the nameplate data matches the data on the sales order and bill of lading (including electrical data).
2. Verify that the power supply complies with the unit nameplate specifications.
3. Visually inspect the exterior of the unit, for signs of shipping damage. Do not sign the bill of lading accepting the unit(s) until inspection has been completed. Check for damage promptly after the unit(s) are unloaded. Once the bill of lading is signed at the jobsite, the unit(s) are now the property of the
SOLD TO party and future freight claims MAY NOT be accepted by the freight company.
Jobsite Storage
This unit is intended for indoor use only. To protect the unit from damage due to the elements, and to prevent possible
IAQ contaminant sources from growing.
1.
Place the unit(s) on a dry surface or raise above the ground to assure adequate air circulation beneath the unit.
2. Cover the unit(s) with a water proof tarp to protect them from the elements.
NOTICE:
Microbial Growth!
Wet interior unit insulation can become an amplification site for microbial growth (mold), which may cause odors and damage to the equipment and building materials. If there is evidence of microbial growth on the interior insulation, the insulation should be removed and replaced prior to operating the system.
3. Make provisions for continuous venting of the covered units to prevent moisture from standing on the unit(s) surfaces.
4. Do not stack units.

Installation—Mechanical
Wall Box Installation
The following instructions are general recommendations for installing wall intake boxes. Consult the architectural plans for specific requirements.
Additional materials required to complete any specific installations (such as duct connections, metal mounting plates, or flanges) are not furnished by Trane.
For best results, all air intake boxes should be removable from outside of the building. Weep holes must be at the bottom to permit free drainage. A positive air and moisture seal should be provided around all edges.
General Instructions.
Trane wall boxes are illustrated in the dimensional section of this manual. Dimensions are actual, and may be used to define the wall opening.
Vertical louvers in the wall intake box provide extra strength for a high load bearing capacity. The lintel may be omitted on masonry wall installations.
Weep holes are provided in the outside face of the bottom channel in the wallbox frame. Install all wall boxes to permit free drainage through the weep holes to the outside of the building.
All wallboxes are furnished with diamond pattern expanded aluminum bird screen.
Note: V1 and V2 (vertical) wall models are all unflanged.
H2, V3, and V6 are flanged.
Installation in Masonry Walls.
A typical method of installing the wall box in a masonry wall opening is shown in
.
Grout the top and bottom of the wall box frame as noted.
A sloped water dam located in the space between the unit and wall facilitates moisture drainage. Grouting at the ends of the intake box will complete the seal between the wall box frame and the masonry opening.
Installation in Curtain Walls.
In all cases, the wall intake box should be caulked to provide a tight, weatherproof seal (see
Note: A minimum of 2-1/8 in. of clearance must be maintained between the exterior wall and back of the unit. Failure to provide this gap will not allow the wall box to fit properly.

General Installation Checks
The checklist below is a summary of the steps required to successfully install a unit. This checklist is intended to acquaint the installing personnel with procedures required in the installation process. It does not replace the detailed instructions called out in the applicable sections of this manual.
1.
Carefully remove the stretch wrap and top cardboard cover. Check the unit for shipping damage and material shortage; file a freight claim and notify appropriate sales representation. If end panels have been ordered,
the panel will already be mounted to the unit.
Note: The unit ventilator is packaged in clear stretch wrap to allow for immediate visual inspection.
A protective cardboard cover helps prevent scratching and other cosmetic blemishes during transport.
2. Remove remaining cardboard blocking.
3. Remove the unit’s left front panel to verify nameplate/ sales order number is correct. It is located behind the control box.
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 21 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
4. Remove shipping bracket from the lower rear corners of the unit to separate the unit from the skid. Access to the screws holding the bracket to the skid is obtained inside the unit.
5. Rotate the fan wheels manually. The wheels should move freely and be in proper alignment. Visually inspect the fan area for obstructions or shipping damage.
6. Remove all applicable knockouts for coil piping and electrical connections.
Location Considerations
Selecting the appropriate location for installing a unit is very important. The following factors should be considered:
WARNING
Heavy Object!
Floor structure must be strong enough to support the weight of the unit. Consult the structural plans, and have a structural engineer ensure the floor can withstand the weight of the unit. Inadequate structural support could result in unit falling.
Failure to follow recommendations could result in death or serious injury.
1.
Floor design must have sufficient structure to withstand the weight of the unit while allowing for openings in the floor for a return air duct, electrical and piping supply lines fed through the floor. Refer to
“Dimensions and Weights,” p. 11 for unit weights.
2. Wall space design should allow the unit to be mounted to the wall securely. The wall surface behind the unit should be smooth and level. Wall and floor moldings should be removed prior to installation. A wall slightly out of level may cause problems with unconditioned air leaking into the room. Remove any object projecting more then 1/8 in. (0.3175 cm) from the wall surface.
Note: Additional gasket or furr strips may be installed to accommodate for an uneven wall.
3. There are two removable knock-outs in the rear of the unit, on either end, for piping and electrical supply lines. A pipe chase is located in the upper back portion of the unit for crossover piping. The outside air opening is located in the lower back of the unit and the path to the wallbox on the outside wall should be unobstructed.
4. The physical layout of the room should accommodate any accessories ordered with the unit. Conditioned air is distributed through the grille on top of the unit and returned through the return air grille on the bottom of the unit. Avoid placing any objects that may obstruct either grille or interfere with airflow.
Installation—Mechanical
5. Internal access to the unit is provided by the removable front panel. Sufficient space should be allowed to lift the panel for maintenance purposes.
6. Ensure the floor surface is level.
Note: The unit leveling legs can be adjusted to accommodate slight out-of-level installation surfaces.
Unit Mounting
Note: All wall intake boxes should be installed prior to
mounting the unit ventilator. Refer to p. 20
for wall box installation instructions.
The 1/2 in. mounting or anchoring holes are located on the
back of the unit on each end (see Figure 11, p. 22 ).
Note: All mounting fasteners are to be provided by the installer.

A 7/8 in. OD condensate drain connection is provided on the chilled water supply end of the unit.
1.
Attach a flexible condensate drain hose over the drain pan connection and secure with a hose clamp.
The drain pan on the vertical is vacuum-molded with a drain connection and P-trap on the cooling coil, connection side.
Note: Condensate removal to the main system should be made through the bottom of the unit ventilator. If other location for condensate removal is desired, a specific field cut-out for the connection should be made in the back of the unit ventilator. To help avoid cold air infiltration, the field cut-out should only be large enough to allow for the condensate hose to exit the unit.
To field reverse the slope of a vertical unit drain pan:
2. Slide out fan deck (disconnecting the condensate line
and fan plug will release fan deck for sliding).
3. Remove pipe clamp that hold the p-trap to the drain pan.
4. Remove clips that hold the drain pan in-place.
5. Lift and rotate the drain pan.
24
6. Reconnect p-trap to the drain pan and replace clips to secure the pan to the fan deck.
7.
After the condensate drain piping has been completed, check water flow to ensure the system properly carries and away all condensate accumulation.
Note: A P-trap is factory supplied in every vertical unit ventilator.
Trane Piping Packages (Option).
Trane Standard
Piping Package includes a 2- or 3-way valve with bypass balance valve, ball valves, Pete’s plugs and unions. A strainer and circuit balancing valve are optional.
All union connections should be tightened in the field.
Units are shipped with union connections hand tightened only in the factory.
Note: All connections made in the field should be sweat connections.
Piping packages are not shipped insulated. Any insulation should be provided in the field by the installing contractor.
The auxiliary drain pan (optional) is the main condensate connection to the unit when specified. The chilled water or
DX coil drain pan will empty into the auxiliary drain pan if a factory-installed, auxiliary pan is ordered. All field-piping condensate connections should be made at the auxiliary drain pan.
Installation Crossover Piping
Crossover piping is available for all hydronic coils. It is either 1-3/8 in. \[34.9\] or 2-1/8 in. \[54\] in diameter (OD) as specified by the customer. Crossover piping can be found in either the left or right hand end pocket. Refer to
“Dimensions and Weights,” p. 11
for dimensional data.
On 4-pipe coils, crossover piping connects to the main cooling coil.
Factory insulation is provided on all crossover piping.
When a Trane piping package is ordered, it is installed with the connections made to the supply and return of both the coil and the crossover piping. However, supply and return connections must be made in the field when a piping package is furnished by the installer.
The crossover piping is located at the back of the unit along the wall and the ends of the piping are flush with the end of the unit.
Expansion compensation between the piping package and the crossover piping is achieved using flex hoses rated at
250 psi working pressure. Expansion compensation for the crossover piping must be handled external to the unit ventilator.
Split System Units
The following refrigerant piping and interconnecting wiring instructions apply to unit ventilators with direct expansion type cooling coils used in conjunction with aircooled condensing units. Reference must also be made to
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 25 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM the condensing unit installation and wiring manuals which are shipped with the condensing unit.
Note: The ETL listing mark applied to a unit ventilator does not apply to any associated refrigerant condensing unit.
Refrigerant Piping
Installation—Piping
There are detailed methods for determining condensate load under various operating conditions. However, in most cases this is not necessary if the coils are piped as shown in
. Follow the procedure documented in the ASHRAE Systems Handbook, Steam Systems.

WARNING
Hazard of Explosion and Deadly Gases!
Never solder, braze or weld on refrigerant lines or any unit components that are above atmospheric pressure or where refrigerant may be present. Always remove refrigerant by following the guidelines established by the EPA Federal Clean Air Act or other state or local codes as appropriate. After refrigerant removal, use dry nitrogen to bring system back to atmospheric pressure before opening system for repairs. Mixtures of refrigerants and air under pressure may become combustible in the presence of an ignition source leading to an explosion. Excessive heat from soldering, brazing or welding with refrigerant vapors present can form highly toxic gases and extremely corrosive acids.
Failure to follow all proper safe refrigerant handling practices could result in death or serious injury.
Unit ventilators with direct expansion cooling contain a nitrogen holding charge in the evaporator coils.
Connections are “pinched-off” at the factory.
To connect the condensing unit lines, cut off the stubouts and swage. The condensing unit lines can then be brought into the swage and brazed. Trane recommends the use of nitrogen purge when brazing refrigerant lines to prevent formation of oxides in the lines.
Install the refrigerant suction and liquid lines as described in the condensing unit installation instructions. The TXV is factory installed on the unit ventilator. Piping should be run straight out through the back of the unit. Access piping knockouts are located in the rear panels of the unit, as
shown “Dimensions and Weights,” p. 11 .
Recommended refrigerant line connections for various
unit combinations are given in Table 8, p. 24
. Typical
Superheat Charging Charts are shown in the Trane Service
Facts found in the condensing unit section manual.
Refrigerant charge weights can also be determined with your local Trane sales engineer using a valid Trane
Selection Program.
Steam Piping
When air, water or another product is heated, the temperature or heat transfer rate can be regulated by a modulating steam pressure control valve. Since pressure and temperature do not vary at the same rate as load, the steam trap capacity, which is determined by the pressure differential between the trap inlet and outlet, may be adequate at full load, but not some lesser load.

Modulating Water Valves (Option)
The actuator on the valve is a 24V, 3-point floating valve.
The actuator can be easily removed from the valve body by pressing in on the locking tab and rotating the actuator
45° counter-clockwise (see Figure 14
). The 2-way valves are bi-directional flow; the 3-way valves can be mixing or
diverting (see Figure 15, p. 26 ).
Note: The actuator must be removed if soldering is being conducted near the valve. High heat may cause damage to the actuator’s plastic body/ mechanisms.

Plumbing the Valve
The valve may be plumbed in any angle but preferably not with the actuator below horizontal level of the body. Make sure there is enough room around the actuator for servicing or replacement.
For use in diverting applications, the valve is installed with the flow water entering through the bottom AB port and diverting through end ports A or B. In mixing applications the valve is installed with inlet to A or B and outlet through
AB.
Mount directly to the tube or pipe. Do not grip the actuator while making or tightening plumbing connections. Either hold valve body by hand or attach an adjustable spanner
(38 mm/1-1/2”) across the hexagonal or flat faces on the
).
Figure 17.
Proper plumbing technique for modulating valves
On applications without the optional, factory installed piping packages, it is important to remove the cartridge assembly from the valve body with the provided tool (see
Figure 16.
Cartridge removal tool
AB
Use the following steps to complete cartridge assembly removal:
1.
Remove valve actuator.
2. Remove the cartridge assembly from the valve body with the enclosed tool.
3. Solder the valve in accordance with normal soldering practices.
4. Re-install the cartridge after soldering by tightening until it bottoms out. The top surface of the cartridge will be flush with the top edge of the body casting.
NOTICE:
Over-tightening!
Do not over-tighten. Maximum torque is 40 in·lb.
Overtightening could result in equipment damage.
5. Replace valve actuator and wire in accordance with instructions.
26
Manually Opening Valve
The manual opener can be manipulated only when in the up position. The A port can be manually opened by firmly pushing the white manual lever down to the midway position and pushing the lever in. In this position, both A and B ports are open. This “manual open” position may be used for filling, venting and draining the system or opening the valve during power failure.
The valve can be closed by depressing the white lever lightly and then pulling the lever outward. The valve and actuator will return to the automatic position when power is restored.
Note: If the valve is powered open, it cannot be manually closed, unless the actuator is removed.

Wiring the Valve
WARNING
Electrocution and Fire Hazards with
Improperly Installed and Grounded
Field Wiring!
Improperly installed and grounded field wiring poses
FIRE & ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding as described in NEC and your local/state electrical codes. All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel.
Failure to follow these requirements could result in death or serious injury.
A controller and a separate transformer is required to operate each valve (see
Figure 18 and Figure 19, p. 27
).
Port A “open” and “closed” denote valve open and closed positions.

enough room to remove actuator cover for servicing.
Mount the valve on the tube or pipe.
Note: Ensure the flow through the valve is in the direction indicated by the arrow stamped on the valve body.
Figure 20.
Proper mounting for isolation valves
Servicing/Removal of Valves
The actuator can be removed from the valve body.
Removing the actuator is recommended if soldering is being conducted near the valve. To remove the actuator:
1.
Place the manual operating lever to the Open position
2. Depress the locking button and lift actuator until it separates from the valve body.
To install the actuator to the valve body:
3. Align the slot on the shaft of the valve with the valve
body notch on side of body (see Figure 22, p. 28
).
Figure 21.
Removing valve actuator
The typical floating controller is an SPDT controller with a center-off position. On a change in temperature from the set point, the controller will close the normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) contacts, driving the valve to an intermediate position until a further change at the controller.
The valve is set between the limits of the controller to satisfy various load requirements. In the event of power failure, the valve will stay in the position it was in before loss of power. When power is restored, the valve will again respond to controller demand.
Isolation Valves Installation
The valve can be mounted in any position on a vertical line.
If the valve is mounted horizontally, the actuator must be even with or above the center line. Make sure there is

7.
Align actuator coupling to slot on the shaft of the valve body and fit the head onto the valve body to ensure the shaft seats correctly (see
).
8. Press the actuator and valve body until it secures together.
Soldering Procedures
1.
Remove actuator as stated earlier.
2. Place valves on the pipe. Rotate valve stem so the shaft slot points at the notch in the side of the body (90° to flow direction). This protects the plug inside the valve
by removing it from the seat (see Figure 23
).
3. Sweat the joints, keeping outer surface free from solder.
Note: Do not use silver solder due to high temperature requirements.
Heating Coils with Direct Expansion
Cooling
Heating options for direct expansion cooling in the unit ventilator are hot water, steam or electric heat.
These coils facilitate direct expansion cooling with standard capacities. The supply and return connections are located in the right-hand end pocket. Hot water field connections are made with a 5/8 in. \[15.9\] OD male sweated joint, while steam coils have a 1 in. \[25.4\] male pipe thread (MPT) connection. Refer to
coil connection sizes.
Electric heat coils provide a third way to supply heating to the direct expansion cooling. The coil utilizes three to six preheat elements which are factory-wired.

Sensor
When selecting a sensor location, avoid the following:
• Areas of direct sunlight
• Areas in the direct airstream of air diffusers
• Exterior walls and other walls that have a temperature differential between the two sides
30 UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 31 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
• Areas that are close to heat sources such as sunlight, appliances, concealed pipes, chimneys, or other heatgenerating equipment
• Drafty areas
• Dead spots behind doors, projection screens, or corners
• Walls that are subject to high vibration
• Areas with high humidity
• High traffic areas (to reduce accidental damage or tampering)
• Metal barriers between the receiver and the sensor (for example, plastered walls with metal lathe or metal roof decks)
• Thick, solid concrete walls between the receiver and the sensor
• Placing the sensor inside metal enclosures
Height Requirements
It is recommended that you mount the back plate a maximum distance of 54 inches above the floor. If a parallel approach by a person in a wheelchair is required, reduce the maximum height to 48 inches.
Note: Consult section 4.27.3 of the 2002 ADA (Americans with Disability Act) guideline, and local building codes, for further details regarding wheelchair requirements.
Mounting Surfaces
Using the hardware provided, mount the back plate of the sensor to a flat surface such as sheetrock or plaster, or an electrical junction box. The sensor must be mounted plumb for accurate temperature control and to ensure proper air movement through the sensor.
• If mounting onto sheetrock or plaster, use the plastic threaded anchors (pre-drilling holes is not usually necessary) and the two M3.5 x 20 mm mounting screws.
• For mounting onto an electrical junction box, use the two 6-32 x 3/4 in. screws.
Before beginning installation, consider the location considerations below. Also, refer to the unit wiring schematic for specific wiring details and point connections.
Location Considerations
Avoid mounting the sensor in an area subject to the following conditions:
• Dead spots, such as behind doors or in corners that do not allow free air circulation.
• Air drafts from stairwells, outside doors, or unsectioned hollow walls.
• Radiant heat from the sun, fireplaces, appliances, etc.
Installation—Sensors
• Airflow from adjacent zones or other units.
• Unheated or uncooled spaces behind the controller, such as outside walls or unoccupied spaces.
• Concealed pipes, air ducts, or chimneys in partition spaces behind the controller.
Location Considerations for Wireless zone sensors
Placement of the sensor is critical to proper operation (the receiver is factory mounted on fan-coil units). For most installations, barriers limit proper radio signal strength more than distance. For best radio transmission range and reliability, mount the receiver and sensor in line of sight.
Where this is not possible, try to minimize the number of barriers between the pair of devices. In general, sheetrock walls and ceiling tiles offer little restriction to the transmission range for the sensor is as follows:
• Open range: 2,500 ft (packet error rate = 2%)
• Usable range: 200 ft
• Typical range: 75 ft
Fan Mode Switch Installation
The fan mode switch ships loose inside the unit accessory bag. Follow the steps below to install the fan mode switch.
Items needed:
2 x 4 electrical junction box
1.
Remove the brown wire if not using a field-supplied damper.
2. Remove the terminals, cut and strip wires as required for installation.
3. Level and position a 2 x 4 electrical junction box.
4. Follow the instructions given in “Wall-Mounted
Control Interconnection Wiring,” p. 42
and route the wires as shown in the wiring diagram. Refer to the typical wiring diagram or to the unit specific diagram on the unit.
5. Position the fan mode switch over the junction box with the two screws supplied.

Address Setting
The process of establishing communication between a receiver and sensor is referred to as association. The following limitations apply:
• Each associated receiver/sensor set that communicates within the reception range of the wireless system must have a unique address.
It is not possible to associate more than one sensor to a receiver, nor is it possible to associate more than one receiver to a sensor.
To associate a receiver and sensor, the two devices must have their rotary address switches set to the same address.
Important: Set the addresses before applying power to the receiver and before removing the insulation strip (
To set the receiver and sensor addresses:
1.
Using a small screwdriver, set the three rotary address switches (locations S1, S2, S3) on the receiver to an
address between 001 and 999 (see Figure 39
). You do

Note: Do not use 000 as an address. An address of
000 returns the receiver outputs to their factory defaults (zone temperature and setpoint outputs: 72.5°F, removes all association knowledge, and prevents association with a sensor.

Note: Do not use 000 as an address. An address of
000 removes all association knowledge, reverts the sensor to a low-power hibernation mode, and sends a disassociation request to the receiver.
3. Record the address and location of the receiver and sensor pair.
Observing the Receiver for Readiness to
Associate
After initial power up, the receiver conducts a channel scan for 20 seconds. During this time, the receiver selects from
16 available channels the clearest channel on which to operate. LED1, LED2, and LED3 flash rapidly in succession
(round-robin style) while the channel scan is in progress, as shown in part 1 of the illustration.
Important: Do not attempt association (leave the insulation strip in place) until the channel scan is finished.

Sensor Operations
Temporary Occupancy (Timed Override)
Temporary occupancy (timed override) is available on model WDS. Temporary occupancy is selected for afterbusiness-hours adjustment of temperature setting, fan settings, or heat/cool settings, when the system has changed to unoccupied mode. System control will revert to unoccupied after a pre-determined time period.
Note: Not all systems support the occupancy function.
Model WDS Sensor
To request and cancel temporary occupancy on a model
WDS sensor, see
“Requesting Temporary Occupancy,” p. 39 .
End-of-Range Temperature Values
Receiver: The end-of-range temperature limits of the receiver for all models are 32°F to 122°F. The receiver cannot replicate temperature values outside this range. If the sensor transmits a temperature value to the receiver that is out of the receiver replication range, the receiver will “freeze” the output at the end-of-range values. This value will remain frozen until the transmitted temperature moves to between the end-of-range temperature limits.
Sensor: The end-of-range temperature setpoint limits for the model WDS sensor is 50°Fto 89.6°F.
Receiver Power-up Sequence
When power is applied to the receiver, one of the following sequences occurs. The sequence is dependent on the address setting and the association status of the receiver.
Address set to 000 and receiver is not associated with a sensor
• LED5 is constantly On, indicating power is applied and the receiver is functional.
• All models: Zone temperature and cooling setpoint default to 72.5°F.

• The receiver conducts an energy scan for 20 seconds to determine the clearest channel on which to operate.
• LED3 flashes On every 2 seconds when it is ready to accept a sensor association request. When an association request is made by a sensor, the receiver instructs the sensor on which power level to operate.
Then the receiver and sensor begin operation at the appropriate channel and power level (see
“Observing the Receiver for Readiness to Associate,” p. 33 ).
Address set from 001 to 999 (and not changed since most recent power-up) and receiver is associated with a sensor
• LED5 is constantly On, indicating power is applied and the receiver is functional.
• Zone temperature and setpoint default to 72.5°F. WDS only: Heating setpoint defaults to 70.5°F, Fan = Auto,
System = Off.
• The receiver waits for a broadcast transmission from its associated sensor. When a transmission is received, the receiver positions its zone temperature and setpoint outputs appropriately.
• If the receiver does not receive a communicated signal from its associated sensor within 35 minutes, zone temperature and setpoint outputs fail, generating a unit controller alarm (see
Default Modes of Operation (Wireless Controls),” p. 101
).
Note: Once a receiver communicates to a WZS sensor, the receiver disables (opens) its zone setpoint output indefinitely.
Sensor Transmission Time and Temperature
Variables
Sensor transition time variables are as follows:
• The maximum time between sensor temperature transmissions is 15 minutes.
• The minimum time between sensor temperature transmissions is 30 seconds.
• The minimum time for transmitting temperature setpoint changes is 10 seconds.
Note: If a sensor transmits a message to the receiver and the receiver does not reply, the sensor will retransmit the message to the receiver every 30 seconds until communication to the receiver is reestablished.
Sensor temperature time variables are as follows:
• The minimum change in zone temperature required to force a sensor transmission is:
– 0.2°F when the temperature range is between 60°F and 80°F
– 0.5°F when the temperature range is between 32°F and 60°F or between 80°F and 122°F
• The minimum change in temperature setpoint required to force a sensor transmission is:
– 0.1°C for a model WDS sensor

WARNING
Electrocution and Fire Hazards with
Improperly Installed and Grounded Field
Wiring!
Improperly installed and grounded field wiring poses
FIRE & ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding as described in NEC and your local/state electrical codes. All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel.
Failure to follow these requirements could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
Wiring diagrams provided in this manual are for reference only. Actual wiring for particular options/ units could vary. Refer to the diagram provided on the equipment for specific information. Failure to follow recommendations above could result in premature motor failures or equipment damage.
Do not remove or alter the wiring of the time delay relay (DL). Failure to do so could result in equipment failure.
WARNING
Fire Hazard!
When installing field provided controls, do not alter or remove any built-in unit safeties. Tampering with unit safeties could cause unit overheating and possible fire hazard which could result in death or serious injury.
Control Power.
Unit ventilator controls and control wiring can be factory mounted or field installed.
Wiring diagrams illustrate the standard unit motors with one or more speed controls. Terminal wiring is provided by Trane and the actual components used for a particular installation may differ. Control and line diagrams for the exact control system used are provided with each unit.
42
NOTICE:
Use Copper Conductors Only!
Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of conductors. Failure to use copper conductors could result in equipment damage.
Electrical Wiring
Unit Wiring Diagrams.
Specific unit wiring diagrams, based on unit options ordered, are provided inside each unit and can be easily removed for reference. Use these diagrams for connections or trouble analysis. Wiring diagrams are attached on the inside of the front panel of the unit.
Supply Power Wiring.
Refer to the unit nameplate to obtain the minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) and maximum fuse size (MFS) or maximum circuit breaker
(MCB) to properly size field supply wiring and fuses or circuit breakers. Refer to the unit operating voltage listed on the unit wiring schematic, submittal, or nameplate.
Reference the wiring schematic for specific wiring connections.
Note: All field wiring should conform to NEC and all applicable state and local code requirements. The control panel box is always on the end opposite the piping connections. Access the control box by removing the two screws that secure the front cover. This will allow the panel to be removed, to provide access to the electrical components.
If the unit does not have a disconnect switch, the power leads and capped ground wire are inside the control panel.
If the unit has a disconnect switch, the power leads are wired to the junction box switch on the control panel. Pull the capped ground wire into the junction box.
Electrical Grounding Restrictions.
All sensor and input circuits are normally at or near ground (common) potential. When wiring sensors and other input devices to the Tracer controller, avoid creating ground loops with grounded conductors external to the unit control circuit.
Ground loops can affect the measurement accuracy of the controller.
All input/output circuits (except isolated relay contacts and optically isolated inputs) assume a grounded source, either a ground wire at the supply transformer to control panel chassis, or an installer supplied ground.
Wall-Mounted Control Interconnection Wiring.
The installer must provide interconnection wiring to connect wall-mounted devices such as a fan mode switch or zone sensor module. Refer to the unit wiring schematic for specific wiring details and point-to-point wiring connections. Dashed lines indicate field wiring on the unit wiring schematics. All interconnection wiring must conform to NEC Class 2 wiring requirements and any state
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 43 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM and local requirements. Refer to the following table for the wire size range and maximum wiring distance for each device.
Important: Do not bundle or run interconnection wiring in parallel with or in the same conduit with any high-voltage wires (110 V or greater).
Exposure of interconnection wiring to high voltage wiring, inductive loads, or RF transmitters may cause radio frequency interference (RFI). In addition, improper separation may cause electrical noise problems. Therefore, use shielded wire
(Belden 83559/83562 or equivalent) in applications that require a high degree of noise immunity. Connect the shield to the chassis ground and tape at the other end.
Note: Do not connect any sensor or input circuit to an external ground connection.
Supply Power.
Power supply wiring is to be connected to terminals 1 and 2 at the junction box in the left end pocket, below the discharge air grille.
NOTICE:
Use Copper Conductors Only!
Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of conductors. Failure to use copper conductors could result in equipment damage.

The motor harness attached to the single plug to which the motor mates contains the very important motor voltage jumper and should not be modified or substituted. Failure to follow this instruction could result in equipment damage.
• The motor mates to the unit electrically via a single plug that contains both the operating voltage and the control signals that are needed for correct operation.
• The BLDC motor comes in a double shaft configuration for all vertical unit ventilator sizes (075, 100, 125, 150).
Note: Sizes 125 and 150 have two motors installed.
• The BLDC motor has two voltage variations, 115/
208-230V and 277V. Units with three-phase and neutral have motors wired to the L-N (as opposed to L-L). The
115/208-230V is configured for voltage by use of an external jumper. If the jumper is present the motor will be configured for use with 115V. The jumper must NOT be present for use with 208-230V.

• The adapter allows direct customer interfacing through the use of terminal strips. Standard interfacing includes:
– Fan Speeds (H, M, L) (for wall mounted fan speed switches)
– Variable speed (0–10V) inputs
• The standard adapter board eliminates many separate wiring harnesses in the panel and allows simple, mistake-proofed single-plug interfacing of:
– The ECM engine controller
– Transformers
– Motors
– Valves
– Dampers
– Electric heat control
– Fan speed switches
– Main Power (except electric heat).
• Electric heat lockout circuits and fan proving circuits for electric heat are standard, and are pre-configured at the factory.

• Performs courtesy “inversion” of thermostatic inputs to match selected valves:
– Standard thermostats put out only “on” signals, however customer may select a normally open valve. A selectable switch allows the customer to invert the thermostat outputs for correct operation.
These switches are set at the factory, but can be adjusted in the field.
– Sophisticated changeover function when used with a thermistor, that replaces traditional bi-metallic disc temperature switches:
• Board will automatically honor only the appropriate customer request (Heat/Cool) depending on sensed water temperature.
• Feature can be enabled or disabled with a selector switch—however, it is set correctly at the factory, based on customer choice of coil.
• The bi-metallic disc temperature switch emulation is programmable, and dead-band range can be adjusted.
• Electric heat lockout circuits and fan proving circuits for electric heat are standard, and are pre-configured at the factory.

Installation and Initial Setup
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects and discharge all motor start/run capacitors before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives or other energy storing components provided by Trane or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all capacitors have discharged. Failure to disconnect power and discharge capacitors before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
UV-SVN03F-EN
WARNING
Safety Alert!
You MUST follow all recommendations below. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.
• The BLDC motors contain capacitors which store residual energy. Please keep clear of the fan wheels for 5 minutes after the power has been removed from the system, as a power request with the motor powered off, could result in a very short period of actuation.
• All settings take effect immediately, including fan startup and enabling of electric heat. Caution should be taken to stay clear of hazardous voltages, moving parts and electric heat elements while making adjustments to the ECM engine board. If it is not practical to stay clear of these areas during adjustment of the ECM engine board, please contact
Trane Global Parts for configuration kit that allows easy powering of the engine board outside of the unit with a 9V battery.
• The adapter boards contain high voltage.
Configuration adjustments to the ECM engine board should be made through the SMALLER of the two low-voltage lids on the front of the control panel, through the low-voltage insulation/shielding.
• Changes to switch settings on the CSTI adapter board take effect immediately. Changes should be made to the CSTI configuration switches with the power off.
• Initial hookups to the CSTI and Standard Adapter board, including low voltage interconnections, must be made with the power off.
• Do not make connections to the motors or the adapter boards while power is ON. Do not remove connections to the motor or the adapter boards while the power is ON.
• Do not free spin the fan wheels with your hands while the unit is powered on. The system is constantly scanning and responding to the operational status of the motors.
Installation and Initial Setup
Note: Normally, the Trane BLDC motors are configured for soft ramps and transitions between speeds.
However, to aid in commissioning of the unit, for approximately 10–15 minutes, the ramps will be shortened to quickly observe proper unit behavior and response to speeds.
For new installations, all boards and motors are preinstalled and pre-configured according to the unit configuration, indicated by its model number.
Under normal and intended operation, the only required intervention specific to the new BLDC units is the wiring of:

Safety Alert!
You MUST follow all recommendations below. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.
• Hook ups to the adapter boards should be made only with the power off to the unit.
• Only connect Class 2 voltages to the terminal blocks on the adapter boards that share a common with the unit mounted low-voltage transformer.
• Secure low voltage connections firmly to terminal strips, and strain-relieve all low voltage connection to prevent accidental detachment and possible shortcircuiting of high voltage components. Care should be taken to avoid contact of low voltage wiring to the back side of the adapter boards, which contain high voltage.
Note: Specifications subject to change without notice.
Consult the unit submittals and unit schematics before determining hookup requirements to the fan-coil unit. Terminal block positions, polarities and assignments are determined for specific unit configurations only. Signal assignments are indicated, for reference only.
Both adapter boards come equipped with integrated terminal blocks to hook up to the field supplied/mounted
Fan Speed Switches and external controls. Connections should be made to the screw terminals with wires between
16 AWG and 24 AWG, with a ~4–5-mm wire strip length.
The terminal blocks have 5-mm spacing, and are equipped with 3-mm screws. The field-supplied wires should have an insulation rating of 600V.

Configuration Use Examples
Example 1.
To view the value of parameters without saving. In this case we wish to verify that the “Low Speed
Value” for Motor 1 is set correctly to 800 rpm.
We start with the ECM engine scrolling status display and proceed as follows:
It would appear that the value has been changed, but if we check the value, we notice that the original value has been retained.
Example 2.
We wish to change the change the value of
Low Speed to 820 rpm:
We will continue from the previous example as shown below, using a long press to “save” the new desired value.
Note: If the display has timed out and returned to the status loop, repeat Example 1 to arrive back at this example’s starting point.
Example 3.
We wish to double check to see if the value of
“820 rpm” has been saved.
Note: If the display has timed out and returned to the status loop, repeat Example 1 and Example 2 to arrive back at this example’s starting point.
Priority / Error Display
Under special conditions, the status display will interrupt briefly to prioritize display of events:
Notes:
• During error displays, the user interface will be disabled, until the error is removed or resolved.
• If changes are made to parameters and saved, most settings take effect immediately. Any change to fan speeds will take effect and cause the configuration menu to exit immediately to begin tracking speeds via the on-board tachometer.
• Where practical, the unit will offer “limp-in” performance, but to ensure safe operation, certain unit functions will be disabled. For example, if one motor fails, the unit will display an error code, but the second motor (if present) will continue to operate. However, to ensure safe operation, the electric heat (if present) will be disabled.
• If a error occurs while the configuration menu is in effect, all unsaved values will be discarded and the error codes will be displayed.
Example 4.
We wish to change the value of a protected value on an electric heat unit.

ECM Overview and Setup
Initial Setup and Configuration
After connections of power and hookup of customer installed controls/fan speed switches and under normal/ operative conditions the only adjustments needed to be made to the ECM engine board during commissioning of the unit are:
• Adjustment and calibration of the variable speed inputs (VSP/0–10V) on the system, where applicable.
• Adjustment, calibration or disabling of the optional auto-changeover function on CSTI units, where applicable.
In addition, the CSTI adapter board offers configurability that can be used in special cases to adjust the following operation of the unit:
• Courtesy cooling/main valve logic inversion relays for use with normally open valves
• Courtesy heating/auxiliary valve logic inversion relays for use with normally open valves
• Changeover function for use with changeover coils (in conjunction with the ECM engine board)
The switches are factory-set based on the model number configuration as ordered; however, the information is provided below to aid in the understanding of the operation of the system.

NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
You MUST follow all recommendations below. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage.
• Care should be taken in the system to use a single
24 Vac supply system to avoid damage to equipment.
• Care should be taken to observe proper polarity and grounding in the hookup of the 0–10V system to avoid damage to equipment.
Notes:
• The 0–10V (variable speed) inputs are available for use, but are not mandatory. The Trane Brushless DC system
55
UV-SVN03_.book Page 56 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
ECM Overview and Setup
comes standard with three to five field-accessible thermostatic inputs (with adjustable speed), so the use of the 0–10V inputs is optional.
• All inputs are independently configurable and simultaneously accessible, and the ECM engine will choose the highest user (configured and requested) speed. However, care should be taken with customer controls to avoid contention of signals.
The ECM engine and adapter boards offer standard, normalizing 0–10V Variable speed fan inputs for use with field supplied controllers or thermostats. These inputs can be used as the only input to the system, used in addition to the thermostatic (H, M, L) inputs, or not used at all. The inputs are accessible via 1TB4 on the adapter boards.
The ECM engine is factory configured to drive the unit to a minimum speed (catalogue “low speed” value), defined as
and
once the analog (0–10V) input is honored. As a default, the noise floor/threshold is set to
3 percent (0.3V). At 0.3V, the system will drive the motors to the speeds defined in defined as
and
. If the analogue input goes to 10V, the ECM engine will drive the motor to maximum speed (normally catalogue “high speed” value), defined as
and
, and will change speed in response.
Although the ECM engine board ships with settings that will work with most 0–10 Vdc outputs, calibration should be performed to maximize response range and controller authority. Typically, the only settings needed for the VSP inputs are calibration of the signal to ensure that the system obeys the following rules:
1.
The minimum output from the field supplied controller is met with a positive fan response. That is, we do not want the
setting on the ECM engine board to be higher than the minimum output of the field supplied controller, as the ECM engine will “ignore” a portion of the usable range of the customer fan variable speed output.
2. The minimum output from the field supplied controller is not significantly greater than the floor setting
floor. If the minimum output of the controller is significantly greater than the floor setting, the first point that the motor will turn on will be above the
and
value. The full range of motor control will not be fully utilized in this case, as the motor will never reach the low speed motor analogue input scaling value for Motor 1 and Motor 2 (
and
)
3. The maximum output of the controller needs to be 10V, or if lower, needs to be compensated using the analog input scaling value,
to normalize the operational range. As a default, the scaling value is set to 1.00 (so a voltage of 5V will be graded as 5V); however, to compensate for long runs or lower max voltages (i.e., lower than 10.00), the scaling value can be increased accordingly to maximize operational range.
For example, if the voltage is only reaching a value of
9.0V at the adapter boards, then the
parameter should be set to (10/9=)
.
. If left un-calibrated, the unit will never attain maximum speeds, defined as
and
.
4. The ECM engine can accept slightly over-biased inputs up to 12 Vdc, and the
parameter can be set to a value less than 1.0 to compensate.

ECM Overview and Setup
•
•
•
The ECM engine board provides additional temperature controlled logic to help coordinate certain electric-heat and valve logic functions:
• On units with electric heat and a changeover coil, the engine board and adapter boards are pre-configured to cause hydronic heat and electric heat to be mutually exclusive:
– On units with ComfortLink™ controls (Tracer ZN controllers), the Tracer ZN board will serve as the primary logic to select the electric heat only if hot water is not available, but the engine board will service as a backup lockout.
– On units with Customer Supplied Controllers (CSTI units), the engine board and CSTI board will serve as the primary lockout.
• On CSTI units selected with a changeover coil configuration, the engine board is factory configured to work in conjunction with the CSTI adapter board to provide a useful auto-changeover function.
Traditionally, a fixed setpoint bi-metallic disc temperature switch is used to provide changeover with customer controls; however, the engine board has defeatable and configurable bi-metallic disc temperature switch emulation when combined with the CSTI adapter board. The ECM engine is preconfigured for typical values, so changeover settings do not necessarily need to be changed.
– An NTC thermistor is supplied and affixed to the supply pipes where applicable. The ECM engine has several settings that affect the operation of the changeover function:
•

•

or
to use the changeover functions.

parameter should be chosen if the unit has a changeover coil with electric heat.
Generally, this will perform the same as the
parameter but in addition, will disable heating function on electric heat and on the changeover coil if there are fan failures. The auxillary heating coil function will continue to operate and respond to the customer heating request.
parameter should be set to
for CSTI units and to
for ComfortLink controller units.
parameter defines the temperature at which the engine board will close the triac onboard the ECM engine (if
parameter is set correctly).
parameter defines the temperature at which the engine board will open the triac onboard the ECM
Engine (if
parameter is set correctly). By leaving a “gap” between the make and break value, we will simulate hysteresis of a real bi-metallic disc temperature switch.

• When combined with the CSTI adapter board, the bimetallic disc temperature switch emulation and the electric heat lockout function will work when the switches are set correctly.
Adjustment and Configuration of the CSTI
Adapter Board
CAUTION
Burn Hazard!
If SW4 is turned off, the factory/customer controller/ thermostat will be able to actuate the electric heat while hot water is available or if the fans have failed.
This switch should NOT be turned off if the unit schematic indicates that it should be on, to prevent overheating of the unit (due to simultaneous electric heat and hydronic heat actuation, or failure of the fan) and to use the preferred hydronic heating over electric heat. Failure to follow this instruction could result in the unit overheating and becoming hot to the touch, which could result in minor or moderate injury, and/or equipment damage.
For CSTI units, the board mounted switches have to be set appropriately to enable the desired functionality.

Notes:
• All switches are factory-set based on customer configuration of the unit model number. The unit will function correctly as shipped; however, the switch functions and positions are depicted for customer convenience and for service and troubleshooting aids.
• SW3 and SW4 work in conjunction with settings on the
ECM engine controller. Simple activation of
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 59 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM changeover and electric heat lockout function may not work correctly unless the ECM engine board is configured to perform these functions.
• Customers are advised to locate the changeover coil temperature sensor on the bypass line if possible, to avoid measuring standing water temperature.
• If a 4-pipe unit with changeover function is selected, the heating input will drive the main coil if hot water is detected, but will always drive the auxiliary coil or electric heat (where available).
• Where electric heat is available with a changeover coil, the electric heat is factory-configured to be deactivated if there is hot water available and if there is a fan failure.
The CSTI board comes with courtesy valve inversion relays that allow both normally open and normally closed two-position valves to be used with simple thermostats that do not have the configurability to adapt to the customer choice of valves. Independent switches, SW1 and SW2, are provided for 2-pipe or 4-pipe units, or 2-pipe units with an optional reheat coil. The functions of SW1 and SW2 is downstream of the changeover function (SW3 and ECM engine board). Decisions made by the changeover circuits will be flowed to the inversion circuits, if they are selected.
SW3 enables or disables the changeover function for
2-pipe changeover coil units, or 4-pipe units where the coil has both a heating/cooling circuit and a heating circuit piped internally. If SW3 is turned off, the changeover function will be disabled, and the unit will then be configured as a cooling only coil, a heating only coil, or a combination of cooling only/heating only coil. Thus, customer cooling requests will drive the main valve, and heating requests will drive the auxiliary valve.
The changeover function is designed to work with customer controllers that request heating or cooling
(based on customer request), but have coil water temperatures that are “changed over” from heating to cooling (or cooling to heating) depending on the season and the building equipment available. Customer thermostats MUST be hooked to the correct terminal strip locations (V1 and V2) for the changeover function to work.
Cooling
In general, the (CSTI) changeover function will provide cooling if:
1.
A unit is factory configured with a changeover coil
(cooling/heating) as the only coil or as the main coil portion.
2. SW3 on the CSTI adapter board is turned on, and the
parameter set to

parameter should be chosen if the unit has a changeover coil with electric heat. Generally, this
UV-SVN03F-EN
ECM Overview and Setup
will perform the same as the
parameter but will in addition, disable the heating function on electric heat and on the changeover coil heat if there are fan failures. The auxiliary heating coil valve will continue to respond to customer heating requests.
3. The ECM engine has sensed that there is cold water available on the supply/bypass line for the changeover coil. In this case, “cold” water is inferred by the ECM engine if: a. A 10K NTC thermistor (similar to Trane part number
X13790374010) is wired properly to the engine board, through the crossover cables and CSTI adapter boards.
b. The input impedance of the thermistor circuit must be set correctly (the
parameter should be set to
for CSTI units).
c. The temperature sensed is lower than the
parameter.
d. The
parameter is higher than the
parameter.
e. The temperature is not in the dead-band between the
parameter and the
parameter (in this case, previous state will be retained).
4. The customer thermostat is properly hooked up the input strip 1TB3, and is requesting cooling input (V1) based on the customer cooling setpoint being lower than the space temperature.
Heating
In general, the (CSTI) changeover function will provide heating if:
1.
A unit is factory-configured with a changeover coil
(cooling/heating) as the only coil or as the main coil portion.
2. SW3 on the CSTI adapter board is turned on, and the
parameter set to

3. The ECM engine has sensed that there is hot water available on the supply/bypass line for the changeover coil. In this case, “hot” water is determined if: a. A 10K NTC thermistor (similar to Trane part number
X13790374010) is wired properly to the engine board, through the crossover cables and CSTI adapter boards.

d. The

e. The temperature is not in the dead-band between the

4. The customer thermostat is properly hooked up the input strip 1TB3, and is requesting heating input (V2) based on the customer heating set point being higher than the space temperature.
5. The heating input on 1TB3 will drive the main changeover coil IF conditions 1–4 are satisfied, but will always drive the auxiliary coil valve (if present).
Electric heat will be locked out (where present) if hot water is available since SW4 will be factory set to “ON” in these units.
SW4 selects the electric heat lockout function, where we will lock out the electric heat circuit based on either:
1.
The presence of hot water in the changeover coil section (if the
parameter is set to
).
2. Abnormal behavior of the fan/s (if the
parameter is set to
).
3. Or a combination of both the presence of hot water or abnormal behavior of the fan/s (if the
parameter is set to
).
4. The preceding three examples depend on the inference of the engine board that hot water is present.
In this case, “hot” water is determined if: a. The temperature sensed is higher than the
parameter.
b. The
parameter is higher than the
parameter.
c. The temperature is not in the dead-band between the
parameter and the
parameter (in this case, previous state will be retained).
d. The input impedance of the thermistor circuit must be set correctly (the
parameter should be set to
for CSTI units).
Configuring the ECM Engine Board
Every Trane Fan-Coil or Cabinet Heater unit with BLDC motors will have modules specifically configured at the factory for the operation of that unit. The ECM engine configuration label is affixed to the low-voltage access lid
on the outside of the control panel (see Figure 48, p. 50
and Figure 53, p. 60 ). The ECM engine label may be on the
back-side of the low voltage access lid, depending on the unit configuration.
The serial number of each unit and the custom configuration settings specific to that unit will be printed on the label for convenient matching of labels/settings to specific units. Programming a unit with the settings from another unit will result in abnormal operation. The label contains four important sections:
1.
How to enter the configuration menu
2. The description and meaning of the Error Codes
3. The description and meaning of the status display
4. The parameter names and values specific to that unit

Wired Controllers—Communication Wiring
Wiring Installation (ZN520)
Tracer ZN520 controllers are LonTalk ® devices that interface with the Trane Tracer Summit building management system. Reference the unit wiring diagram or submittals.
Ground shields at each Tracer ZN520, taping the opposite end of each shield to prevent any connection between the shield and anther ground. Refer to the most recent version of Trane publication CNT-SVX04A-EN (Tracer ZN520 Unit
Controller: Installation, Operation and Programming
Guide) for the communication wiring diagram.
Communication wire must conform to the following specification:
1.
Shielded twisted pair 18 AWG
2. Capacitance 23 (21–25) picofarads (pF) per foot
3. Listing/Rating—300 V 150C NEC 725-2 (b) Class 2 Type
CL2P
4. Trane Part No. 400-20-28 or equivalent, available through Trane BAS Buying Group Accessories catalog.
Note: Communication link wiring is a shielded, twisted pair of wire and must comply with applicable electrical codes.
Follow these general guidelines when installing communication wiring on units with a Tracer ZN520 controller:
• Maintain a maximum 5000 ft. aggregate run.
• Install all communication wiring in accordance with the NEC and all local codes.
• Solder the conductors and insulate (tape) the joint sufficiently when splicing communication wire. Do not use wire nuts to make the splice.
• Do not pass communication wiring between buildings because the unit will assume different ground potentials.
• Do not run power in the same conduit or wire bundle with communication link wiring.
Note: You do not need to observe polarity for LonTalk communication links.
Device Addressing
LonTalk devices are given a unique address by the manufacturer. This address is called a Neuron ID. Each
Tracer ZN520 controller can be identified by its unique
Neuron ID, which is printed on a label on the controller’s logic board. The Neuron ID is also displayed when communication is established using Tracer Summit or
Rover service tool. The Neuron ID format is
00-01-64-1C-2B-00.
Wire Characteristics
Controller communication-link wiring must be low capacitance, 18-gage, shielded, twisted pair with stranded, tinned-copper conductors. For daisy chain configurations, limit the wire run length to 5,000 ft. Truck and branch configurations are significantly shorter. LonTalk wire length limitations can be extended through the use of a link repeater.
Recommended Communication Wiring
Practices
The following guidelines should be followed while installing communication wire.
• LonTalk is not polarity sensitive. Trane recommends that the installer keep polarity consistent throughout the site.
• Only strip away two inches maximum of the outer conductor of shielded cable.
• Make sure that the 24 Vac power supplies are consistent in how they are grounded. Avoid sharing
24 Vac between LonTalk UCMs.
• Avoid over-tightening cable ties and other forms of cable wraps. A tight tie or wrap could damage the wires inside the cable.
• Do not run LonTalk cable alongside or in the same conduit as 24 Vac power.
• In an open plenum, avoid lighting ballasts, especially those using 277 Vac.
• Do not use a trunk and branch configuration, if possible. Trunk and branch configurations shorten the distance cable can be run.

Conformance to Regulatory Standards
All wiring must comply with the National Electrical Code™
(NEC™) and local electrical codes.
Connecting Wires to Terminals
To connect wires to the UC400 controller or the expansion modules:
1.
Strip the wires to expose 0.28 inch (7 mm) of bare wire.
2. Insert the wire into a terminal connector.
3. Tighten the terminal screw to 0.5 to 0.6 N-m (71 to
85 ozf-in or 4.4 to 5.3 lbf-in.).
4. Tug on the wires after tightening the screws to ensure all wires are secure as shown on the right.
BACnet MS/TP Link
Setting the Address
The rotary address dials on the UC400 controller serve one or two purposes depending upon the network: they are always used for the MAC Address, which is sometimes all

Use a 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) flathead screwdriver to set rotary address dials. Dials rotate in either direction.
MAC Address.
The MAC Address is required by the RS-
485 communication protocol on which BACnet operates. A
UC400 controller can use a MAC Address from 001 to 120.
Important: Each device on the link must have a unique
MAC Address/Device ID. The controller rotary addresses should be sequentially set, with no gaps in the numbering, starting with
001 on each link (for example 001, 002, 003,
004 and so on). A duplicate address or a 000 address setting will interrupt communications and cause the Tracer SC device installation process to fail.
BACnet Device ID.
The BACnet Device ID is required by the BACnet network. Each device must have a unique number from 001 to 4094302.
BACnet networks without a Tracer SC system controller
On BACnet networks without a Tracer SC system controller, the Device ID can be assigned one of two ways:
• It can be the same number as the MAC Address, determined by the rotary address dials on the UC400 controller. For example, if the rotary address dials are set to 042, both the MAC Address and the BACnet
Device ID are 042.
• It can be soft set using the Tracer TU service tool. If the
BACnet Device ID is set using the Tracer TU service tool, the rotary address dials only affect the MAC
Address, they do not affect the BACnet Device ID.
BACnet networks with a Tracer SC system controller
On BACnet networks with a Tracer SC system controller, the Device ID for the UC400 controller is always soft set by the system controller using the following scheme illustrated below.
UV-SVN03F-EN

CAUTION
Personal Injury and Equipment Damage!
After installation, make sure to check that the 24 Vac transformer is grounded through the controller. Failure to check could result in personal injury and/or damage to equipment. Measure the voltage between chassis ground and any ground terminal on the UC400 controller. Expected result: Vac £ 4.0 V
NOTICE:
Avoid Equipment Damage!
Sharing 24 Vac power between controllers could cause equipment damage.
A separate transformer is recommended for each UC400 controller. The line input to the transformer must be equipped with a circuit breaker sized to handle the maximum transformer line current.
If a single transformer is shared by multiple UC400 controllers:
• The transformer must have sufficient capacity.
• Polarity must be maintained for every UC400 controller powered by the transformer.
Important: If the polarity is inadvertently reversed between two controllers powered by the same transformer, a difference of 24Vac will occur between the grounds of each controller, which can result in:
• Partial or full loss of communication on the entire BACnet MS/TP link
• Improper function of the UC400 controller outputs
• Damage to the transformer or a blown transformer fuse

Wired Controllers—Communication Wiring
Transformer Recommendations
A 24Vac power supply must be used for proper operation of the binary inputs, which requires 24Vac detection. In addition, the spare 24Vac outputs may be used to power relays and TRIACS.
• AC transformer requirements: UL listed, Class 2 power transformer, 24Vac ±15%, device max load 24VA. The transformer must be sized to provide adequate power to the controller (12VA) and outputs (maximum 12VA
per binary output).
• CE-compliant installations: The transformer must be
CE marked and SELV compliant per IEC standards.
Wiring Requirements
To ensure proper operation of the UC400 controller, install the power supply circuit in accordance with the following guidelines:
• A dedicated power circuit disconnect switch must be near the controller, easily accessible by the operator, and marked as the disconnecting device for the controller.
• 18 AWG (0.823 mm 2 ) copper wire is recommended for the circuit between the transformer and the controller.
Important: The controller must receive AC power from a dedicated power circuit; failure to comply
may cause the controller to malfunction. DO
NOT run AC power wires in the same wire bundle with input/output wires; failure to comply may cause the controller to malfunction due to electrical noise.
Connecting Wires
To connect the wires:
1.
Disconnect power to the transformer.
2. Connect the 24Vac secondary wires from the transformer to the 24Vac and terminals on the
UC400 controller (refer to the illustration below).
3. Do one of the following to ensure the controller is adequately grounded:
• Connect a grounding pigtail at some point along the secondary wire that runs between the controller terminal and the transformer.
• Ground one of the terminals on the controller to the enclosure (if the enclosure is adequately grounded) or to an alternate earth ground.
.

To perform a Power ON check:
1.
Verify that the 24Vac connector and the chassis ground are properly wired.
2. Remove the lockout/tagout from the line voltage power to the electrical cabinet.
3. Energize the transformer to apply power to the UC400 controller.
4. Observe the UC400 controller when power is applied to verify the power check sequence as follows: a. The power LED lights red for 1 second b. The power LED lights green
• If the sequence above is completed as described, the controller is properly booted and ready for the application code.
If the power LED flashes red, a fault condition exists.

Startup
Tracer ZN520 Sequence of
Operation
The Tracer ZN520 operates the fan in the following modes:
1.
occupied
2. unoccupied
3. occupied standby
4. occupied bypass
5. Tracer Summit with supply fan control
Occupied (Tracer ZN520)
When the controller is in the occupied mode, the unit attempts to maintain the space temperature at the active occupied heating or cooling setpoint, based on the measured space temperature, the discharge air temperature, the active setpoint, and the proportional/ integral control algorithm. The modulating control algorithm used when occupied or in occupied standby is described in the following sections. Additional information related to the handling of the controller setpoints can be found in the previous Setpoint operation section.
Unoccupied Mode (Tracer ZN520)
When the controller is in the unoccupied mode, the controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the stored unoccupied heating or cooling setpoint, based on the measured space temperature, the active setpoint and the control algorithm, regardless of the presence of a hard-wired or communicated setpoint. Similar to other configuration properties of the controller, the locally stored unoccupied setpoints can be modified using Rover service tool.
In unoccupied mode, a simplified zone control algorithm is run. During the cooling mode, when the space temperature is above the cool setpoint, the primary cooling capacity operates at 100 percent. If more capacity is needed, the supplementary cooling capacity turns on (or opens to 100 percent). During the heating mode, when the space temperature is below the heat setpoint, the primary heating capacity turns on. All capacity is turned off when the space temperature is between the unoccupied cooling and heating setpoints. Note that primary heating or cooling capacity is defined by unit type and whether heating or cooling is enabled or disabled. For example, if the economizer is enabled and possible, it will be the primary cooling capacity. If hydronic heating is possible, it will be the primary heating capacity.
Occupied Standby Mode (Tracer ZN520)
The controller can be placed into the occupied standby mode when a communicated occupancy request is combined with the local (hard-wired) occupancy binary input signal. When the communicated occupancy request is unoccupied, the occupancy binary input (if present)
UV-SVN03F-EN 73
UV-SVN03_.book Page 74 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Startup
does not affect the controller’s occupancy. When the communicated occupancy request is occupied, the controller uses the local occupancy binary input to switch between the occupied and occupied standby modes.
During occupied standby mode, the controller’s economizer damper position goes to the economizer standby minimum position. The economizer standby minimum position can be changed using Rover service tool.
In the occupied standby mode, the controller uses the occupied standby cooling and heating setpoints. Because the occupied standby setpoints typically cover a wider range than the occupied setpoints, the Tracer ZN520 controller reduces the demand for heating and cooling the space. Also, the outdoor air economizer damper uses the economizer standby minimum position to reduce the heating and cooling demands.
When no occupancy request is communicated, the occupancy binary input switches the controller’s operating mode between occupied and unoccupied. When no communicated occupancy request exists, the unit cannot switch to occupied standby mode.
Occupied Bypass Mode (Tracer ZN520)
The controller can be placed in occupied bypass mode by either communicating an occupancy request of Bypass to the controller or by using the timed override On button on the Trane zone sensor.
When the controller is in unoccupied mode, you can press the On button on the zone sensor to place the controller into occupied bypass mode for the duration of the bypass time (typically 120 minutes).
Occupancy Sources (Tracer ZN520)
There are four ways to control the controller’s occupancy:
• Communicated request (usually provided by the building automation system or peer device)
• By pressing the zone sensor’s timed override On button
• Occupancy binary input
• Default operation of the controller (occupied mode)
A communicated request from a building automation system or another peer controller can change the controller’s occupancy. However, if communication is lost, the controller reverts to the default operating mode
(occupied) after 15 minutes (configurable, specified by the
“receive heartbeat time”), if no local hard-wired occupancy signal exists.
A communicated request can be provided to control the occupancy of the controller. Typically, the occupancy of the controller is determined by using time-of-day scheduling of the building automation system. The result of the time-of-day schedule can then be communicated to the unit controller.
74
Tracer Summit with Supply Fan Control
(Tracer ZN520)
If the unit is communicating with Tracer Summit and the supply fan control programming point is configured for
Tracer (the factory configures as local), Tracer Summit will control the fan regardless of the fan mode switch position.
When the fan mode switch is set to Off or when power is restored to the unit, all Tracer ZN520 lockouts (latching diagnostics) are manually reset. The last diagnostic to occur is retained until the unit power is disconnected.
Refer to Trane publication, CNT-SVX04A-EN (Tracer ZN520
Unit Controller: Installation, Operation and Programming
Guide) for specific instructions regarding the procedure for running the Tracer ZN520.
Cooling Operation (Tracer ZN520)
The heating and cooling setpoint high and low limits are always applied to the occupied and occupied standby setpoints. During the cooling mode, the Tracer ZN520 controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the active cooling setpoint. Based on the controller’s occupancy mode, the active cooling setpoint is one of the following:
• Occupied cooling setpoint
• Occupied standby cooling setpoint
• Unoccupied cooling setpoint
The controller uses the measured space temperature, the active cooling setpoint, and discharge air temperature along with the control algorithm to determine the requested cooling capacity of the unit (0 percent–
100 percent). The outputs are controlled based on the unit configuration and the required cooling capacity. To maintain space temperature control, the Tracer ZN520 cooling outputs (modulating hydronic valve, two-position hydronic valve, or outdoor air economizer damper) are controlled based on the cooling capacity output.
The cooling output is controlled based on the cooling capacity. At 0 percent capacity, all cooling capacities are off and the damper is at minimum position. Between
0 percent and 100 percent capacity, the cooling outputs are controlled according to modulating valve logic
(modulating valves) or cycled on (2-position valves). As the load increases, modulating outputs open further and binary outputs are energized longer. At 100 percent capacity, the cooling valve or damper is fully open
(modulating valves) or on continuously (and 2-position valves).
Unit diagnostics can affect fan operation, causing occupied and occupied standby fan operation to be defined as abnormal. Refer to
Controls),” p. 96 for more information about abnormal fan
operation.
The Tracer ZN520 controller operates the supply fan continuously when the controller is in the occupied and occupied standby modes, for either heating or cooling.
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 75 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
The controller only cycles the fan off with heating and cooling capacity in the unoccupied mode.
The economizer is used for cooling purposes whenever the outdoor temperature is below the economizer enable setpoint and there is a need for cooling. The economizer is used first to meet the space demand, and other forms of cooling are used if the economizer cannot meet the demand alone. See modulating outdoor air damper operation for additional information.
Cascade cooling control initiates a discharge air tempering function if the discharge air temperature falls below the discharge air temperature control low limit, all cooling capacity is at minimum, and the discharge control loop determines a need to raise the discharge air temperature.
The controller then provides heating capacity to raise the discharge air temperature to its low limit.
Discharge Air Tempering (Tracer ZN520)
The discharge air tempering function enables when cold outdoor air is brought in through the outdoor air damper, causing the discharge air to fall below the discharge air temperature control low limit. The controller exits the discharge air tempering function when heat capacity has been at 0 percent for five minutes.
Heating Operation (Tracer ZN520)
During heating mode, the Tracer ZN520 controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the active heating setpoint. Based on the occupancy mode of the controller, the active heating setpoint is one of the following:
• Occupied heating
• Occupied standby heating
• Unoccupied heating
During dehumidification in the heating mode, the controller adjusts the heating setpoint up to the cooling setpoint. This reduces the relative humidity in the space with a minimum of energy usage.
The controller uses the measured space temperature, the active heating setpoint, and discharge air temperature, along with the control algorithm, to determine the requested heating capacity of the unit (0 percent–
100 percent). The outputs are controlled based on the unit configuration and the required heating capacity.
Unit diagnostics can affect the Tracer ZN520 controller operation, causing unit operation to be defined as abnormal. Refer to
information about abnormal unit operation.
The heating output is controlled based on the heating capacity. At 0 percent capacity, the heating output is off continuously. Between 0 percent and 100 percent capacity, the heating output is controlled according to modulating valve logic (modulating valves) or cycled on
(two-position valves). As the load increases, modulating outputs open further and binary outputs are energized
UV-SVN03F-EN
Startup
longer. At 100 percent capacity, the heating valve is fully open (modulating valves) or on continuously (twoposition valves).
The Tracer ZN520 fan output(s) normally run continuously during the occupied and occupied standby modes, but cycle between high and off speeds with heating/cooling during the unoccupied mode. When in the occupied mode or occupied standby mode and the fan speed is set at the high, medium, or low position, the fan runs continuously
at the selected speed. Refer to “Diagnostics,” p. 90
for more information on abnormal fan operation.
When the unit’s supply fan is set to auto, the controller’s configuration determines the fan speed when in the occupied mode or occupied standby mode. The fan runs continuously at the configured heating fan speed or cooling fan speed. For all fan speed selections except off, the fan cycles off during unoccupied mode.
The economizer outdoor air damper is never used as a source of heating. Instead, the economizer damper (when present) is only used for ventilation; therefore, the damper is at the occupied minimum position in the occupied mode. The damper control is primarily associated with occupied fan operation.
Fan Mode Operation (Tracer ZN520)
For multiple fan speed applications, the Tracer ZN520 controller offers additional fan configuration flexibility.
Separate default fan speeds for heating and cooling modes can be configured. The fan runs continuously for requested speeds (off, high, medium, or low). When the fan mode switch is in the Auto position or a hard-wired fan mode input does not exist, the fan operates at the default configured speed. See
Table 14, p. 75 for default fan
configuration for heat and cool mode. During unoccupied mode, the fan cycles between high speed and off with heating and cooling fan modes. If the requested speed is off, the fan always remains off.

During dehumidification, when the fan is on Auto, the fan speed can switch depending on the error. Fan speed increases as the space temperature rises above the active cooling setpoint.
Additional flexibility built into the controller allows you to enable or disable the local fan switch input. The fan mode request can be either hard-wired or communicated to the

Continuous Fan Operation (Tracer ZN520)
During occupied and occupied standby modes, the fan normally is on. For multiple speed fan applications, the fan normally operates at the selected or default speed (off, high, medium, or low). When fan mode is auto, the fan operates at the default fan speed.
During unoccupied mode, the controller controls the fan off. While unoccupied, the controller heats and cools to maintain the unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints. In unoccupied mode, the fan is controlled on high speed only with heating or cooling.
The unit fan is always off during occupied, occupied standby, and unoccupied modes when the unit is off due to a diagnostic or when the unit is in the off mode due to
76 the local zone sensor module, a communicated request, or the default fan speed (off).
If both a zone sensor module and communicated request exist, the communicated request has priority.
Fan Cycling Operation (Tracer ZN520)
Tracer ZN520 does not support fan cycling in
occupied mode. The fan cycles between high speed and off in the unoccupied mode only. The controller’s cascade control algorithm requires continuous fan operation in the occupied mode.
Fan Off Delay (Tracer ZN520)
When a heating output is controlled off, the Tracer ZN520 controller automatically holds the fan on for an additional
30 seconds. This 30-second delay gives the fan time to blow off any residual heat from the heating source, such as a steam coil. When the unit is heating, the fan off delay is normally applied to control the fan; otherwise, the fan off delay does not apply.
Fan Start on High Speed (Tracer ZN520)
On a transition from off to any other fan speed, the Tracer
ZN520 controller automatically starts the fan on high speed and runs the fan at high speed for 0.5 seconds. This provides the ample torque required to start all fan motors from the off position.
Entering Water Temperature Sampling
Function (Tracer ZN520)
Only units using the main hydronic coil for both heating and cooling (2-pipe changeover and 4-pipe changeover units) use the entering water temperature sampling function. Two-pipe changeover and 4-pipe changeover applications allow the main coil to be used for heating and for cooling; therefore, these applications require an entering water temperature sensor.
When three-way valves are ordered with a Tracer ZN520 control, the controller is factory-configured to disable the entering water temperature sampling function, and the entering water sensor is mounted in the proper location.
Disabling entering water temperature sampling eliminates unnecessary water flow through the main coil when three-way valves are used.
The controller invokes entering water temperature sampling only when the measured entering water temperature is too cool to heat or too warm to cool.
Entering water is cold enough to cool when it is five degrees below the measured space temperature. Entering water is warm enough to heat when it is five degrees above the measured space temperature.
When the controller invokes the entering water temperature sampling function, the unit opens the main hydronic valve for no more than three minutes before considering the measured entering water temperature. An initial stabilization period is allowed to flush the coil. This period is equal to 30 seconds plus half of the valve stroke
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 77 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM time. Once this temperature stabilization period has expired, the controller compares the entering water temperature against the effective space temperature
(either hard-wired or communicated) to determine whether the entering water can be used for the desired heating or cooling. If the water temperature is not usable for the desired mode, the controller continues to compare the entering water temperature against the effective space temperature for a maximum of three minutes.
The controller automatically disables the entering water temperature sampling and closes the main hydronic valve when the measured entering water exceeds the high entering water temperature limit (110°F). When the entering water temperature is warmer than 110°F, the controller assumes the entering water temperature is hot because it is unlikely the coil would drift to a high temperature unless the actual loop temperature was very high.
If the entering water temperature is unusable—too cool to heat or too warm to cool—the controller closes the hydronic valve and waits 60 minutes before initializing another sampling. If the controller determines the entering water temperature is valid for heating or cooling, it resumes normal heating/cooling control and effectively disables entering water temperature sampling until it is required.
Electric Heat Operation (Tracer ZN520)
The Tracer ZN520 controller supports one or two-stage electric heat operation for heating. To control the space temperature, electric heat is cycled to control the discharge air temperature. The rate of cycling is dependent upon the load in the space and the temperature of the incoming fresh air from the economizer (if any).
Two-pipe changeover units with electric heat use the electric heat only when hot water is not available.
Manual Fresh Air Damper (Tracer ZN520)
Units with the manual fresh air damper option ship with the damper in the closed position, which is adjustable from zero to 100 percent in 25 percent increments. To adjust the position, first remove the air filter to expose the damper stop screw on the control panel end. Relocate the stop screw to the appropriate position. Then loosen the stop screw wingnut and adjust the linkage.
Economizer Damper Option (Tracer ZN520)
With a valid outdoor air temperature (either hard-wired or communicated), Tracer ZN520 uses the modulating economizer damper as the highest priority source of cooling. Economizer operation is only possible through the use of a modulating damper.
Economizing is possible during the occupied, occupied standby, unoccupied, and occupied bypass modes.
The controller initiates the economizer function if the outdoor air temperature is cold enough to be used as free cooling capacity. If the outdoor air temperature is less than
UV-SVN03F-EN
Startup
the economizer enable setpoint (absolute dry bulb), the controller modulates the outdoor air damper (between the active minimum damper position and 100 percent) to control the amount of outdoor air cooling capacity. When the outdoor air temperature rises 5°F above the economizer enable point, the controller disables economizing and moves the outdoor air damper back to its predetermined minimum position based on the current occupancy mode or communicated minimum damper position.

Dehumidification (Tracer ZN520)
Dehumidification is possible when mechanical cooling is available, the heating capacity is located in the reheat position, and the space relative humidity setpoint is valid.The controller starts dehumidifying the space when the space humidity exceeds the humidity setpoint.
The controller continues to dehumidify until the sensed humidity falls below the setpoint minus the relative humidity offset.The controller uses the cooling and reheat capacities simultaneously to dehumidify the space. While dehumidifying, the discharge air temperature is controlled to maintain the space temperature at the current setpoint.
A typical scenario involves high humidity and high temperature load of the space.The controller sets the cooling capacity to 100 percent and uses the reheat capacity to warm the discharge air to maintain space temperature control. Dehumidification may be disabled via Tracer or configuration.
Note: If the unit is in the unoccupied mode, the dehumidification routine will not operate.
Data Sharing (Tracer ZN520)
Because this controller utilizes L

technology, the controller can send or receive data (setpoint, heat/cool mode, fan request, space temperature, etc.) to and from other controllers on the communication link, with or

without the existence of a building automation system.
This applies to applications where multiple unit controllers share a single space temperature sensor (for rooms with multiple units but only one zone sensor) for both standalone (with communication wiring between units) and building automation system applications. For this application you will need to use the Rover service tool.
For more information on setup, refer to the Trane publication EMTX-SVX01G-EN (Rover Service Tool:
Installation, Operation, and Programming Guide), or the most recent version.
Binary Inputs (Tracer ZN520)
The Tracer ZN520 controller has four available binary
). Normally, these inputs are factoryconfigured for the following functions:
• Binary input 1: Low temperature detection (freezestat)
• Binary input 2: Condensate overflow
• Binary input 3: Occupancy/ Generic
• Binary input 4: Fan status
Note: The generic binary input can be used with a Tracer
Summit ™ building automation system only.
Each binary input default configuration (including normally open/closed) is set at the factory. However, you can configure each of the four binary inputs as normally open or normally closed. The controller will be set properly for each factory-supplied binary input enddevice. When no device is connected to the input, configure the controller’s input as not used.

(c) The generic binary input does not affect unit operation. A building automation system reads this input as a generic binary input.
(d) If the fan mode input is in the off position or the controller is in the unoccupied mode with the fan off, the fan status input will be open. A diagnostic will not be generated when the controller commands the fan off. A diagnostic will only be generated if the fan status input does not close after one minute from energizing a fan output or any time the input is open for one minute. The controller waits up to one minute after energizing a fan output to allow the differential pressure to build up across the fan.
Binary Outputs (Tracer ZN520)
Binary outputs are configured to support the following:
• Three fan stages (when one or two fan stages are present, medium fan speed can be configured as exhaust fan)
• One hydronic cooling stage
• One hydronic heating stage (dehumidification requires this to be in the reheat position)
• One DX cooling stage
• One or two-stage electric heat (dehumidification requires this to be in the reheat position)
• Face and bypass damper
• Modulating outdoor air damper
• One baseboard heat stage

Notes:
1. The zone sensor, entering water temperature sensor, discharge air sensor, and the outside air temperature sensor are 10KΩ thermistors.
2. Zone sensor: Wall-mounted sensors include a thermistor soldered to the sensor’s circuit board. Unit mounted sensors include a return air sensor in the units return air stream.
3. Changeover units include an entering water temperature sensor.
Zone Sensor (Tracer ZN520)
The Tracer ZN520 controller accepts the following zone sensor module inputs:
• Space temperature measurement (10k Ω thermistor)
• Local setpoint (either internal or external on the zone sensor module)
• Fan switch
• Timed override (On) and Cancel timed override
• Communication jack
Space Temperature Measurement (Tracer
ZN520)
Trane zone sensors use a 10k Ω thermistor to measure the space temperature. Typically, zone sensors are wallmounted in the room and include a space temperature thermistor. As an option, the zone sensor can be unitmounted with a separate space temperature thermistor located in the unit’s return air stream. If both a hard-wired and communicated space temperature value exist, the
UV-SVN03F-EN
Startup
controller ignores the hard-wired space temperature input and uses the communicated value.
External Setpoint Adjustment (Tracer ZN520)
Zone sensors with an external setpoint adjustment (1k Ω) provide the Tracer ZN520 controller with a local setpoint
(50°F to 85°F or 10°C to 29.4°C). The external setpoint is exposed on the zone sensor’s front cover.
When the hard-wired setpoint adjustment is used to determine the setpoints, all unit setpoints are calculated based on the hard-wired setpoint value, the configured setpoints, and the active mode of the controller. The hardwired setpoint is used with the controller’s occupancy mode (occupied, occupied standby, or unoccupied), the heating or cooling mode, the temperature deadband values, and the heating and cooling setpoints (high and low limits) to determine the controller’s active setpoint.
When a building automation system or other controller communicates a setpoint to the controller, the controller ignores the hard-wired setpoint input and uses the communicated value. The exception is the unoccupied mode, when the controller always uses the stored default unoccupied setpoints. After the controller completes all setpoint calculations, based on the requested setpoint, the occupancy mode, the heating and cooling mode, and other factors, the calculated setpoint is validated against the following setpoint limits:
• Heating setpoint high limit
• Heating setpoint low limit
• Cooling setpoint high limit
• Cooling setpoint low limit
These setpoint limits only apply to the occupied and occupied standby heating and cooling setpoints. These setpoint limits do not apply to the unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints stored in the controller’s configuration.
When the controller is in unoccupied mode, it always uses the stored unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints.The unit can also be configured to enable or disable the local
(hard-wired) setpoint. This parameter provides additional flexibility to allow you to apply communicated, hardwired, or default setpoints without making physical changes to the unit.
Similar to hard-wired setpoints, the effective setpoint value for a communicated setpoint is determined based on the stored default setpoints (which determines the occupied and occupied standby temperature deadbands) and the controller’s occupancy mode.
Fan Switch (Tracer ZN520)
The zone sensor fan switch provides the controller with an occupied (and occupied standby) fan request signal (Off,
Low, Medium, High, Auto). If the fan control request is communicated to the controller, the controller ignores the hard-wired fan switch input and uses the communicated value. The zone sensor fan switch input can be enabled or
79
UV-SVN03_.book Page 80 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Startup
disabled through configuration using the Rover service tool. If the zone sensor switch is disabled, the controller resorts to its stored configuration default fan speeds for heating and cooling, unless the controller receives a communicated fan input.
When the fan switch is in the off position, the controller does not control any unit capacity. The unit remains powered and all outputs drive to the closed position. Upon a loss of signal on the fan speed input, the controller reports a diagnostic and reverts to using the default fan speed.
On/Cancel Buttons (Tracer ZN520)
Momentarily pressing the on button during unoccupied mode places the controller in occupied bypass mode for
120 minutes. You can adjust the number of minutes in the unit controller configuration using Rover service tool. The controller remains in occupied bypass mode until the override time expires or until you press the Cancel button.
Communication Jack (Tracer ZN520)
Use the RJ-11 communication as the connection point from Rover service tool to the communication link—when the communication jack is wired to the communication link at the controller. By accessing the communication jack via Rover, you can access any controller on the link.
Communications (Tracer ZN520)
Tracer ZN520 controller communicates via Trane’s LonTalk protocol. Typically, a communication link is applied between unit controllers and a building automation system. Communication also is possible via Rover, Trane’s service tool. Peer-to-peer communication across controllers is possible even when a building automation system is not present. You do not need to observe polarity for LonTalk communication links.
The controller provides six 0.25-inch quick-connect terminals for the LonTalk communication link connections, as follows:
• Two terminals for communication to the board
• Two terminals for communication from the board to the next unit (daisy chain)
• Two terminals for a connection from the zone sensor back to the controller

UC400 Sequence of Operation
The UC400 controller will operate to maintain the space temperature setpoint. This section provides information about sequence of operations.
Power-up Sequence (UC400)
When 24Vac power is initially applied to the UC400 controller, the following sequence occurs:
1.
The Power Marquee LED turns on as red, then flashes green, and then turns a solid green.
2. All outputs are controlled OFF and all modulating valves and dampers close.
3. The controller reads all input local values to determine initial values.
4. The random start timer begins (refer to the following section,
5. The random start timer expires.
6. Normal operation begins, assuming there are no generated diagnostics. If any points are in fault or alarm mode, the Power Marquee LED flashes red.
Important: Flashing red does not indicate that the
UC400 controller will fail to operate.
Instead, the point(s) that are in fault or alarm mode should be checked to determine if the status of the point(s) is acceptable to allow equipment operation.
Random Start (UC400)
Random start is intended to prevent all units in a building from energizing at the same time. The random start timer delays the fan and any heating or cooling start-up from 5 to 30 seconds.
Occupancy Modes (UC400)
Occupancy modes can be controlled in the following ways:
• The state of the local (hard wired) occupancy binary input BI1.
• A timed override request from a Trane zone sensor (see
“Timed Override Control (UC400),” p. 81
).
• A communicated signal from either a Tracer SC or BAS.
A communicated request, from either a Tracer SC or BAS, takes precedence over local requests. If a communicated occupancy request has been established, and is no longer present, the controller reverts to the default (occupied) occupancy mode after 15 minutes (if no hard wired occupancy request exists). The UC400 controller has the following occupancy modes:
• Occupied
• Unoccupied
• Occupied standby
• Occupied bypass
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 81 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Occupied Mode (UC400)
In Occupied Mode, the UC400 controller maintains the space temperature based on the occupied space temperature setpoint ± occupied offset. The controller uses the occupied mode as a default mode when other forms of occupancy request are not present and the fan runs continuously. The outdoor air damper, if present, will close when the fan is OFF. The temperature setpoints can be local (hard wired), communicated, or stored default values (configurable using the Tracer TU service tool).
Unoccupied Mode (UC400)
In unoccupied mode, the UC400 controller attempts to maintain the space temperature based on the unoccupied heating or cooling setpoint. The fan will cycle between high speed and OFF. In addition, the outdoor air damper remains closed, unless economizing. The controller always uses the stored default setpoint values
(configurable using the Tracer TU service tool), regardless of the presence of a hard wired or communicated setpoint value.
Occupied Standby Mode (UC400)
The UC400 controller is placed in occupied standby mode
only when a communicated occupied request is combined with an unoccupied request from occupancy binary input
BI1. In occupied standby mode, the controller maintains the space temperature based on the occupied standby heating or cooling setpoints. Because the occupied standby setpoints have a typical temperature spread of 2°F
(1.1°C) in either direction, and the outdoor air damper is closed, occupied standby mode reduces the demand for heating and cooling the space. The fan will run as configured (continuously) for occupied mode. The controller always uses the stored default setpoint values
(configurable using the Tracer TU service tool), regardless of hard wired or communicated setpoint values. In addition, the outdoor air damper uses the economizer occupied standby minimum position setpoint to reduce the ventilation rate.
Occupied Bypass Mode (UC400)
The UC400 controller is placed in occupied bypass mode when the controller is operating in the unoccupied mode and when either the timed override ON button on the
Trane zone sensor is pressed or the controller receives a communicated occupied bypass signal from a BAS. In occupied bypass mode, the controller maintains the space temperature based on the occupied heating or cooling setpoints. The fan will run as configured (continuous or cycling). The outdoor air damper closes when the fan is
OFF. The controller remains in occupied bypass mode until either the CANCEL button is pressed on the Trane zone sensor or the occupied bypass time (configurable using the Tracer TU service tool) expires. The temperature setpoints can configured as local (hard wired), communicated, or stored default values using the Tracer
TU service tool.
UV-SVN03F-EN
Startup
Timed Override Control (UC400)
If the UC400 controller has a timed override option
(ON/CANCEL buttons), pushing the ON button initiates a timed override on request. A timed override on request changes the occupancy mode from unoccupied mode to occupied bypass mode. In occupied bypass mode, the controller controls the space temperature based on the occupied heating or cooling setpoints. The occupied bypass time, which resides in the UC400 controller and defines the duration of the override, is configurable from
0 to 240 minutes (default value of 120 minutes). When the occupied bypass time expires, the unit transitions from occupied bypass mode to unoccupied mode. Pushing the
CANCEL button cancels the timed override request. In addition, it will end the timed override before the occupied bypass time has expired and transition the unit from occupied bypass mode to unoccupied mode.
If the controller is in any mode other than unoccupied mode when the ON button is pressed, the controller still starts the occupied bypass timer without changing to occupied bypass mode. If the controller is placed in unoccupied mode before the occupied bypass timer expires, the controller is placed into occupied bypass mode and remains in this mode until either the CANCEL button is pressed on the Trane zone sensor or the occupied bypass time expires.
Zone Temperature Control (UC400)
The UC400 controller has three methods of zone temperature control:
• Cascade zone control—used in the occupied, occupied bypass, and occupied standby modes. It maintains zone temperature by controlling the discharge air temperature to control the zone temperature. The controller uses the difference between the measured zone temperature and the active zone temperature setpoint to produce a discharge air temperature setpoint. The controller compares the discharge air temperature setpoint with the discharge air temperature and calculates a unit heating/cooling capacity accordingly (refer to the illustration below). The end devices (outdoor air damper, valves, and so on) operate in sequence based on the unit heating/cooling capacity (0–100 percent).

UV-SVN03_.book Page 82 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Startup
If the discharge air temperature falls below the discharge air temperature low limit setpoint,
(configurable using the Tracer TU service tool), and the cooling capacity is at a minimum, the available heating capacity is used to raise the discharge air temperature to the low limit (refer to the following section,
“Discharge Air Tempering (UC400).” ).
• Simplified zone control— if discharge air temperature failure occurs, then simplified zone controls runs. In the unoccupied mode, the controller maintains the zone temperature by calculating the required heating or cooling capacity (0–100%) according to the measured zone temperature and the active zone temperature setpoint. The active zone temperature setpoint is determined by the current operating modes, which include occupancy and heat/ cool modes.
• Discharge air temperature control — is the backup mode that runs only if there is not valid zone temperature. In this mode, the active space temperature setpoint is used as the discharge air temperature setpoint.
Important: This is not a normal operating mode. The source of the invalid zone temperature needs to be corrected to restore normal operation.
Discharge Air Tempering (UC400)
If the UC400 controller is in cooling mode, cascade zone control initiates a discharge air tempering function when:
• The discharge air temperature falls below the discharge air temperature low limit setpoint
(configurable using the Tracer TU service tool)
• All cooling capacity is at a minimum. The discharge air tempering function allows the controller to provide heating capacity (if available) to raise the discharge air temperature to the discharge air temperature low limit setpoint.
• The cold outdoor air is brought in through the outdoor air damper and when the damper is at (high) minimum position. This causes the discharge air temperature to fall below the discharge air temperature low limit setpoint.
Heating or Cooling Mode (UC400)
The heating or cooling mode can be determined in one of two ways:
• By a communicated signal from a BAS or a peer controller
• Automatically, as determined by the UC400 controller
A communicated heating signal permits the controller to
only heat and a communicated cooling signal permits the controller to only cool. A communicated auto signal allows the controller to automatically change from heating to cooling and vice versa.
82
In heating or cooling mode, the controller maintains the zone temperature based on the active heating setpoint and the active cooling setpoint, respectively. The active heating and cooling setpoints are determined by the occupancy mode of the controller.
For 2-pipe and 4-pipe changeover units, normal heat/cool operation will not begin until the ability to conduct the desired heating or cooling operation is verified. This is done using the entering water temperature sampling function, for which a valid entering water temperature is required. When neither a hard wired nor a communicated entering water temperature value is present on changeover units, the controller operates in only heating mode and assumes the coil water is hot. The sampling function is not used.
The entering water temperature sampling function is used
only for changeover applications and for information and troubleshooting. It does not affect the operation of the controller. (For more information, refer to the following
section, “Entering Water Temperature Sampling Function
Entering Water Temperature Sampling
Function (UC400)
The entering water temperature sampling function is used with 2-pipe and 4-pipe changeover units and requires a valid entering water temperature value. If the entering water temperature value is less than 5°F (2.8°C) above a valid zone temperature value for hydronic heating, and greater than 5°F (2.8°C) below a valid zone temperature value for hydronic cooling, the sampling function is enabled. When the sampling function is enabled, the
UC400 controller opens the main hydronic valve to allow the water temperature to stabilize. After 3 minutes, the controller again compares the entering water temperature value to the zone temperature value to determine if the desired heating or cooling function can be accomplished.
If the entering water temperature value remains out of range to accomplish the desired heating/cooling function, the controller closes the main hydronic valve and waits 60 minutes to attempt another sampling. If the entering water temperature value falls within the required range, it resumes normal heating/cooling operation and disables the sampling function.
Fan Operation (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports 1-, 2-, 3-speed fans and variable-speed fans. The fan always operates continuously while either heating or cooling during occupied, occupied standby, and occupied bypass operation. During unoccupied operation, the fan cycles between OFF and HIGH, regardless of the fan configuration. When running in AUTO mode, the fan operates differently based on the mode and the type of fan.
For 1-, 2-, and 3-speed fans, each time the fan is enabled, the fan begins operation and runs on high speed for a period of time (0.5 seconds for fan coils and 3 seconds for
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 83 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM unit ventilators and blower coils) before changing to another speed. Initially running on high speed provides adequate torque to start the fan motor from the OFF position.
Note: In occupied mode, the UC400 controller requires continuous fan operation because of cascade zone control. In unoccupied mode, the fan cycles.
Manual Fan Speed Control (UC400)
Regardless of the fan type, the fan runs continuously at the desired fan speed during occupied, occupied standby, and occupied bypass operation as follows:
• When the controller receives a communicated fan speed signal (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW)
• The associated fan speed switch is set to a specific fan speed
• The Supply Fan Speed Request point is overridden
During unoccupied operation, the fan cycles between OFF and HIGH, regardless of the communicated fan speed signal or fan speed switch setting (unless either of these is
OFF, which in turn, will control the fan OFF).
The fan turns OFF when:
• The controller receives a communicated OFF signal
• The fan speed switch is set to OFF
• Specific diagnostics are generated
• The default fan speed is set to OFF and the fan is operating in the AUTO mode
Note: The supply fan speed source can be configured for
BAS, local, or default value control using the Tracer
TU service tool.
AUTO Fan Operation; 1-, 2-, 3-speed Fans
(UC400)
When the controller receives a communicated auto signal
(or the associated fan speed switch is set to AUTO with no communicated value present), the fan operates in the
AUTO mode. In AUTO mode, the fan operates according to the fan default (configurable using the Tracer TU service tool). The fan speed has multiple speed configurations
(default is AUTO) or set to OFF for both heating and cooling operation. When configured as AUTO (and with multiple speeds available), the fan changes based on the required capacity calculated by the control algorithm.
AUTO Fan Operation; ECM Energy Efficient
Mode (UC400)
When the controller is configured for Energy Efficient
Mode, by means of the Fan Operating Mode Request MV point, the controller and daughter board will minimize energy use by running the fan at the lowest possible speed while maintaining space temperature. The controller will fully utilize valves, economizer, or electric heat which increases fan speed to meet space temperature (unless the
Startup
fan has been manually controlled. Refer to the preceding
section, “Manual Fan Speed Control (UC400)”
).
AUTO Fan Operation; ECM Acoustical Mode
(UC400)
When the controller is configured for Acoustical Mode, by means of the Fan Operating Mode Request MV point, the controller and daughter board will minimize acoustical nuisance by balancing changes in fan speed and total fan noise. The controller will fully OPEN cooling and heating valves before increasing fan speed to meet space temperature (unless the fan has been manually controlled.
Refer to the preceding section, “Manual Fan Speed
). If multiple stages of electric heat exist the controller will use a single minimum air flow for each stage.
Exhaust Control (UC400)
Exhaust control is achieved by a single-speed exhaust fan and controlled by binary output 2 (BO2). Exhaust control, if not present, can be enabled by selecting Yes under the
Exhaust Fan Selection on the Tracer TU Configuration page under the Equipment Options group.
Note: Exhaust fan configuration cannot be selected with
3-speed fan operation.
Important: If exhaust control is added to an existing configuration, all other configuration options should be verified to match the correct equipment options.Temperature and flow setpoints will revert to default values.
The exhaust function is coordinated with the supply fan and outdoor/return air dampers as follows:
• The exhaust fan energizes when the fan is running and when the outdoor air damper position is greater than or equal to the exhaust fan enable position (or the outside air damper position at which the exhaust fan turns ON).
• The exhaust fan turns OFF when the fan either turns
OFF or the outdoor air damper closes to 10 percent below the exhaust fan enable position.
• If the exhaust fan/damper enable setpoint is less than
10 percent, the exhaust output is energized if the outdoor air damper position is at the setpoint and deenergized at 0.
Valve Operation (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports one or two modulating or two-position valves, depending on the application (refer
). The controller opens and closes the appropriate valve(s) to maintain the active zone temperature setpoint at the heating setpoint in heating mode or the cooling setpoint in cooling mode (refer to
).
UV-SVN03F-EN 83
UV-SVN03_.book Page 84 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Startup
Modulating Valve Operation (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports tri-state modulating valve control. Two binary outputs control each valve: one to drive the valve open and one to drive the valve closed. The stroke time for each valve is configurable using the Tracer
TU service tool. The controller supports the following:
• Heating
• Cooling
• Heat/cool changeover with a single valve and coil for 2pipe applications
• Cooling or heat, cool changeover with the main valve, and coil
• Only heating with the auxiliary valve and coil for 4-pipe applications
The controller moves the modulating valve to the desired positions based on heating or cooling requirements.
Modulating Valve Calibration (UC400)
Modulating valve calibration is automatic. During normal controller operation, the UC400 overdrives the actuator
(135 percent of the stroke time) whenever there is a request for a position of 0 percent or 100 percent. At either power-up, after a power outage, or when the occupancy status changes to unoccupied, the controller first drives all modulating valves (and dampers) to the closed position.
The controller calibrates to the fully CLOSED position by over driving the actuator (135 percent of the stroke time).
Thereafter, the controller resumes normal operation.
Two-position Valve Operation (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports two-position valves with a single binary output for each valve. Controllers used for
2-pipe applications support heating, cooling, or heat/cool changeover with a single valve/coil. A controller used for
4-pipe applications supports cooling or heat/cool changeover with a main valve/coil and heating only with an auxiliary valve/coil.
Modulating Outdoor/Return Air Damper
(UC400)
The UC400 controller operates the modulating outdoor/ return air dampers based on the following:
• Occupancy mode
• Outdoor air temperature (communicated or hard wired sensor)
• Zone temperature
• Setpoint
• Discharge air temperature
• Discharge air temperature setpoint
The minimum position for an outdoor air damper is configurable using the Tracer TU service tool for both occupied mode and occupied standby mode and for low-
84 speed fan operation. A controller can receive a BAScommunicated outdoor air damper minimum position.
A BAS-communicated minimum position setpoint has priority over all locally configured setpoints. When a communicated minimum position setpoint is not present, the controller uses the configured minimum position for low fan speed whenever the fan is running at low speed,
regardless of the occupancy state. Refer to Table 23 and
for more information about how the controller determines the position of the modulating outdoor air damper.

Economizing (Free Cooling) (UC400)
Cooling with outdoor air (during the times when the temperature is low enough to allow) is referred to as economizing (free cooling). The UC400 controller and applications with modulating outside air damper, support
UV-SVN03F-EN
UV-SVN03_.book Page 85 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM economizing. The modulating outdoor air damper provides the first source of cooling for the controller.
The controller initiates economizing if the outdoor air temperature is below the economizer enable point
(configurable using the Tracer TU service tool). If economizing is initiated, the controller modulates the outdoor air damper (between the active minimum damper position and 100 percent) to control the amount of outdoor air cooling capacity. When the outdoor air temperature rises 5°F (2.8°C) above the economizer enable point, the controller disables economizing and moves the outdoor air damper back to its predetermined minimum position, based on the current occupancy mode or communicated minimum outdoor air damper position. If an outdoor air temperature value is not present, economizing is disabled.
Two-position Control Of A Modulating
Outdoor Air Damper (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports two-position outdoor air damper actuators. However, a modulating outdoor/return air damper actuator can be used for two-position control.
Two-position control can be achieved by not providing an outdoor air temperature (neither hard wired nor communicated) to the controller, and by setting the damper minimum position (using the Tracer TU service tool) to the desired value, typically 100 percent.
Electric Heat Operation (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports both SCR (modulating) and staged electric heat (1- or 2-stages). SCR heat is only a field-installed option. In a unit configured with staged electric heat, the electric heating circuit(s) are cycled ON and OFF appropriately to maintain the desired space temperature at the active heating setpoint. In a unit configured with SCR (modulating) electric heat, the UC400 will send a 0 to 10 Volt DC signal to adjust SCR capacity in order to maintain the desired space temperature.
In both staged and modulating electric heat applications, the simultaneous use of electric and hydronic heat is not supported and the UC400 will operate electric heat only when hot water is not available (for example, in a changeover unit). In addition, the UC400 will run the supply fan for 30 seconds after electric heat is turned OFF in order to dissipate heat from the unit
Note: This delay does not apply to steam or hydronic heating.
Factory-configured electric heat units have built-in mechanical protections to prevent dangerously high discharge air temperatures.
Dehumidification Operation (UC400)
The UC400 controller supports space dehumidification when:
• Mechanical (DX or hydronic) cooling is available
• The heating capacity is located in the reheat position
UV-SVN03F-EN
Startup
• The space relative humidity is valid
The space relative humidity can be a BAS-communicated value or come directly from a wired relative humidity sensor. The controller begins to dehumidify the space when the space humidity exceeds the humidity setpoint.
The controller continues to dehumidify until the sensed humidity falls below the setpoint minus the relative humidity offset.
Peer-to-peer Communication (UC400)
Peer-to-peer communication is accomplished by means of custom TGP2 programming in the Tracer SC system controller or via hard wiring only between controllers.
Unit Protection Strategies (UC400)
The following unit protection strategies are initiated when specific conditions exist in order to protect the unit or building from damage:
• Smart reset
• Low coil temperature protection
• Condensate overflow
• Fan status
• Fan off delay
• Filter maintenance timer
• Freeze avoidance
• Freeze protection (discharge air temperature low limit)
Smart Reset (UC400)
The UC400 controller will automatically restart a unit that is locked out as a result of a Low Coil Temp Detection
(BI3) diagnostic. Referred to as smart reset, this automatic restart will occur 30 minutes after the diagnostic occurs. If the unit is successfully restarted, the diagnostic is cleared.
If the unit undergoes another Low Coil Temp Detection diagnostic within a 24-hour period, the unit will be locked out until it is manually reset.
Note: Freeze protection will also perform a smart reset.
Low Coil Temperature Protection (UC400)
For more information refer to BAS-SVX48B-EN
(Installation, Operation, and Programming: Tracer UC400
Programmable Controller), or the most recent revision,
and the preceding section, “Smart Reset (UC400)” .
Condensate Overflow (UC400)
For more information refer to BAS-SVX48B-EN
(Installation, Operation, and Programming: Tracer UC400
Programmable Controller), or the most recent revision.
Fan Status (UC400)
In 1-, 2- and 3-speed fans, the status is based on the statuses of the supply fan output multistate and analog points dedicated to fan control. The fan status is reported as HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW, and as a percentage, whenever
85
UV-SVN03_.book Page 86 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Startup
the fan is running. The fan status is reported as OFF whenever the fan is not running. In addition, a fan status switch can be connected to binary input 5 (BI5) to monitor the status of the fan for belt-driven or direct-driven units
(except Trane Macon factory ECM fan motor units). The fan status switch provides feedback to the controller as follows:
• If the fan is not operating when the controller has the fan controlled to ON, the controller generates a Low
Airflow-Supply Fan Failure diagnostic.
• If the UC400 controller energizes the fan output for
1 minute, and the fan status switch indicates no fan operation, the controller performs a unit shutdown and generates a Low Airflow-Supply Fan Failure diagnostic.
• If the fan has been operating normally for one minute, but the fan status switch indicates no fan operation, the same diagnostic is generated.
This manual diagnostic discontinues unit operation until the diagnostic has been cleared from the controller. If a diagnostic reset is sent to the controller, and the fan condition still exists, the controller attempts to run the fan for 1 minute before generating another diagnostic and performing a unit shutdown. A diagnostic reset can be sent to the controller from the Tracer TU Alarms page or by temporarily overriding the Reset Diagnostic Request on the Tracer TU Binary Status page.
Note: In the ECM fan application, the ECM engine board will monitor the status of the fan. In case of a failure, the engine board will disable the motor immediately, and the low airflow diagnostic is sent.
Fan Off Delay (UC400)
After heating has been controlled OFF, the UC400 controller keeps the fan energized for an additional 30 seconds in order to remove residual heat from the heating source.
Filter Maintenance Timer (UC400)
The filter maintenance timer tracks the amount of time (in hours) that the fan is enabled. The Filter Runtime Hours
Setpoint (configurable using the Tracer TU service tool) is used to set the amount of time until maintenance
(typically, a filter change) is required. The timer can be enabled/disabled from the Supply Fan group on the
Setup Parameters page in Tracer TU.
The UC400 controller compares the fan run time to filter runtime hours setpoint. Once the setpoint is reached, the controller generates a Filter Change Required diagnostic. When the diagnostic is cleared, the controller resets the filter maintenance timer to zero, and the timer begins accumulating fan run time again. The diagnostics can be cleared and the filter timer reset by temporarily overriding the Filter Timer Reset Request on the Binary
Status page or by using the reset button on the Alarms page in Tracer TU.
Freeze Avoidance (UC400)
Freeze avoidance is used for low ambient temperature protection. It is initiated only when the fan is OFF. The
UC400 controller enters the freeze avoidance mode when the outdoor air temperature is below the freeze avoidance setpoint (configurable using the Tracer TU service tool).
The controller disables freeze avoidance when the outdoor air temperature rises 3°F (1.7°C) above the freeze avoidance setpoint.
The following occurs when the controller is in freeze avoidance mode:
• Valves are driven open to allow water to flow through the coil
• Fan is OFF
• Economizing is disabled
• The outdoor/return air damper is closed
• DX cooling is OFF
• Electric heat stages are OFF
Freeze Protection (Discharge Air Temperature
Low Limit) (UC400)
The UC400 controller monitors the discharge air temperature with a 10 k Ω thermistor wired to AI4. The freeze protection operation is initiated whenever the discharge air temperature falls below the discharge air temperature low limit. The discharge air temperature low limit is configurable using the Tracer TU service tool.
During freeze protection, the controller increases the heating capacity or decreases the cooling capacity in order to raise the discharge air temperature above the low limit.
If the discharge air temperature remains below the low limit for 3 minutes, the controller generates a Discharge
Air Temp Limit diagnostic.
Freeze protection will also perform a smart reset. Refer to
“Smart Reset (UC400),” p. 85 .

(a) The generic binary output (TB4-1, TB4-2) state is unaffected by all unit diagnostics.
(b) When the entering water temperature is required but not present, the
Tracer ZN520 controller generates a diagnostic to indicate the sensor loss condition. The controller automatically clears the diagnostic once a valid entering water temperature value is present (non-latching diagnostic). When the entering water temperature sensor fails, the controller prohibits all hydronic cooling operation, but allows the delivery of heat when heating is required. In the Cool mode, all cooling is lockedout, but normal fan and outdoor air damper operation is permitted.
(c) When the outdoor air temperature sensor has failed or is not present, the Tracer ZN520 controller generates a diagnostic to indicate the sensor loss condition. The controller automatically clears the diagnostic once a valid outdoor air temperature value is present (non-latching diagnostic). When the outdoor air temperature sensor fails or is not present, the controller prohibits economizer operation.

Diagnostics
Translating Multiple Diagnostics (Tracer
ZN520)
The controller senses and records each diagnostic independently of other diagnostics. It is possible to have multiple diagnostics present simultaneously. The diagnostics are reported in the order they occur.
Possible diagnostics include:
• Low temperature detection
• Condensate overflow
• Low air flow—fan status
• Discharge air temp limit
• Space temperature failure 1
• Entering water temp failure
• Discharge air temp failure
• Outdoor air temp failure
• Local setpoint failure

Resetting Diagnostics (Tracer ZN520)
There are a number of ways in which diagnostics are reset:
1.
Automatic reset by the controller
2. By initiating a manual output test at the controller
3. By cycling power to the controller
4. Through Rover, Trane’s service tool
5. Tracer ZN520: by using any other communicating device ab le to access the controller’s diagnostic reset input.
6. Tracer ZN520: by cycling the fan switch from Off to any speed setting.
Automatic Reset by the Controller (Tracer
ZN520)
The controller includes an automatic diagnostic reset function that attempts to automatically restore the unit when a low temperature diagnostic occurs.
Note: The controller implements the automatic diagnostic reset function only once every 24 hours.
For the controller to increment the 24 hour timer, you must maintain power to the controller. Cycling power resets all timers and counters.
After the controller detects the first special diagnostic, the unit waits 30 minutes before invoking the automatic diagnostic reset function. The automatic diagnostic reset function clears the special diagnostic and attempts to restore the controller to normal operation. The controller resumes normal operation until another diagnostic occurs.
Note: The automatic diagnostic reset function does not operate during the manual output test sequence.
If a special diagnostic occurs within 24 hours after an automatic diagnostic reset, the controller must be manually reset. Other possible methods of resetting diagnostics are described in the sections that follow.
Manual Output Test (Tracer ZN520)
To verify proper end device operation, press the controller’s Test button. This exercise will verify all outputs in a predefined sequence, the first of which will attempt to reset the controller diagnostics if any are present.
Cycling Power to the Controller (Tracer ZN520)
After removing and reapplying the 24 Vac power from the board, the unit cycles through a power-up sequence. By default, the controller attempts to reset all diagnostics present at power-up. Diagnostics present at power-up and those that occur after power-up are handled according to
.

Using Trane’s Service Tool, Rover (Tracer
ZN520)
Rover, Trane’s service tool, can reset diagnostics present in the controller and troubleshoot the unit. For more information, refer to the Trane publication
EMTX-SVX01G-EN (Rover Service Tool: Installation,
Operation, and Programming Guide), or the most recent revision.
Diagnostic Reset (Tracer ZN520)
Any device that can communicate the network variable nviRequest (enumeration “clear_alarm”) can reset diagnostics in the Tracer ZN520 controller.The controller also attempts to reset diagnostics whenever power is cycled.
Cycling the Fan Switch (Tracer ZN520)
Cycle the fan speed switch from Off to any speed and the controller resets all diagnostics. Diagnostics may recur immediately if the problem still exists.
Table 28. Fan outputs do not energize (Tracer ZN520)
Probable
Cause Explanation
Random start After power-up, the controller always observes a random start that varies observed between 0 and 25 seconds. The controller remains off until the random start time expires.
Power-up control wait
When power-up control wait is enabled (non-zero time), the controller remains off until one of two conditions occurs:
1. The controller exits power-up control wait once it receives communicated information.
Cycling fan operation
2. The controller exits power-up control wait once the power-up control wait time expires.
When the fan mode switch is in the auto position, the unit fan cycles off when there is no call for heating or cooling. The heating/cooling sources cycle on or off periodically with the unit fan to match the capacity according to pulse-widthmodulation (PWM) logic.
Unoccupied operation
The fan cycles with capacity when the unit is in unoccupied mode. This occurs even if the unit is in continuous fan operation. While unoccupied, the fan cycles on or off with heating/cooling to provide varying amounts of heating or cooling to the space to match the to pulse-width-modulation
(PWM) logic.
Fan mode off When using the local fan mode switch to determine the fan operation, the off position controls the unit fan to off.
Requested mode: off
It is possible to communicate the operating mode (such as off, heat, and cool) to the controller. When “off” is communicated to the controller, the unit controls the fan to off. The unit is not capable of heating or cooling when the controller is in this mode.
Diagnostic present
No power to the controller
A specific list of diagnostics effects fan operation. For more information, see
If the controller does not have power, the unit fan will not operate. For the controller to operate normally, it must have an input voltage of 24 Vac. When the green LED is off continuously, the controller does not have sufficient power or the controller has failed.
Manual output test
The controller includes a manual output test sequence to verify binary output operation and the associated wiring.
However, based on the current step in the test sequence, the
unit fan may not be powered on. Refer to “Manual Output

Output Testing and Diagnostics
(UC400)
This section provides information about the following:
• Output testing
• Diagnostics
Note: For detailed description of LED activities and troubleshooting tips, refer to the section.
Output Testing (UC400)
Important: Do not directly overwrite the outputs.
Output testing can be accomplished by overriding the following analog and multistate value points in the desired state or position:
• Cool valve request
• DX cool request
• Economizer request
• Electric heat request
• Heat valve request
• Supply fan speed request
The points can be overridden on the Tracer TU analog or multistate pages by clicking on the Override icon in the control column. A higher priority (lower number) must be chosen over the current control setting.
Diagnostics (UC400)
Diagnostics are informational messages that indicate the operational status of the UC400 controller. In response to most diagnostics, the controller attempts to protect the equipment by enabling/disabling, or by opening/closing specific outputs. Other diagnostics provide information about the status of the controller, but have no effect on outputs. Diagnostics are reported in the order in which they occur. Multiple diagnostics can be present simultaneously. Diagnostic messages are viewed using the Tracer TU service tool or through a BAS.
Note: Tracer TU will report only active diagnostics.
Diagnostics Types (UC400)
Diagnostics are categorized according to the type of clearing method each uses and the type of information each provides.
The diagnostic types are:
• Manual (latching) diagnostics
• Automatic (non-latching) diagnostics
• Smart reset diagnostics
• Informational diagnostics
Note: Clearing diagnostics refers to deleting diagnostics from the software; it does not affect the problem that generated the message.
Manual (Latching) Diagnostics (UC400).
Manual diagnostics (also referred to as latching) cause the unit to
UV-SVN03F-EN
Diagnostics
shut down. Manual diagnostics can be cleared from the
UC400 controller in one of the following ways:
• By using the Tracer TU service tool to reset latching diagnostics on the Alarms Status tab or by temporarily overriding the Reset Diagnostic
Request (bv/2) on the Binary Status tab.
• Through a building automation system.
• By cycling power to the controller. When the 24Vac power to the controller is cycled OFF and then ON again, a power-up sequence occurs.
Automatic (Non-latching) Diagnostics (UC400).
Automatic diagnostics clear automatically when the problem that generated the diagnostic is solved.
Smart Reset Diagnostics (UC400).
Smart Reset
Diagnostics are latching diagnostics that will auto-recover if the condition is corrected. After the controller detects the first smart reset diagnostic, the unit waits 30 minutes before initiating the smart reset function. If another diagnostic of this type occurs again within 24 hours after an automatic clearing, clear the diagnostic manually by using any of the ways listed under the preceding section,
“Manual (Latching) Diagnostics (UC400).”
Informational Diagnostics (UC400).
Informational diagnostics provide information about the status of the controller. They do not affect machine operation, but can be cleared from the controller using the BAS or Tracer SC.
Table of Diagnostics (UC400)
lists each diagnostic that can be generated by the
UC400 controller, the diagnostic effect on outputs
(consequences), and diagnostic type.
Note: The generic binary output is unaffected by diagnostics.

Replacing Sensor Batteries (Wireless Controls)
Sensor battery type, length of life, and installation are addressed in this section.
Battery Type (Wireless Controls)
NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
The batteries are manufactured in a ready-to-use state.
They are not designed for recharging. Recharging can cause battery leakage or, in some cases, can cause the safety release vent to open.
NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
Do not attempt to hook up the sensor to a power supply. Equipment damage may result.
Use two non-rechargeable 1.5 V lithium AA batteries in the sensor. To maintain UL rating, use only UL-listed lithium batteries. The sensor ships with Energizer ® L91 batteries already installed. Replacement batteries are available at
Trane Service Parts Centers (p/n X13770035010) or other local suppliers.
Battery Life (Wireless Controls)
Battery life is five years under normal conditions. If the sensor is not used for an extended period of time, do one of the following:
• Set the sensor address to 000 to place the sensor into a low-power hibernation mode.
• Remove the batteries
Notes:
• If lithium batteries are temporarily unavailable, alkaline batteries can be used. However, alkaline battery life is very short by comparison.
• The battery life for a model WDS may decrease with extended LCD display activity.
Battery Installation (Wireless Controls)
Prevent Injury!
WARNING
Batteries can explode or leak and cause burns if installed backwards, disassembled, charged, or exposed to water, fire, or high temperature.
WARNING
Prevent Injury!
Keep away from small children. If swallowed, contact your local poison control center immediately.
6. Observe the polarity indicators that are molded into the cover.
7.
Install two batteries (of the type specified in
Type (Wireless Controls),” p. 99 ) in the battery-holding
slot that is molded into the sensor cover.
The sensor has been designed to prevent damage if the batteries are installed backwards, to reduce the potential for injury.
Manual Association (Wireless Controls)
Before attempting manual or automatic association, the receiver must indicate readiness to associate (one blink
pattern of LED3 on receiver). Refer to “Observing the
Receiver for Readiness to Associate,” p. 33
.
At any time, the manual association method can be used to associate the receiver with the sensor. If an association was previously established between a receiver and a sensor and needs to be re-established, the manual association process may be used. If an association has not yet been established, the automatic association process is
recommended (see “Associating the Sensor to the
8. Using a small screwdriver, set the three rotary address switches (
Figure 39, p. 33 , locations S1, S2, S3) on the
receiver to an address between 001 and 999.
Notes:
• An address can be changed without powering down the receiver or sensor.
• An address can be changed at any time after initial association has been established.
9. Set the three rotary address switches ( Figure 39, p. 33 ,
locations S1, S2, S3) on the sensor to the same address as the receiver.
10. Record the address and location of the receiver and sensor pair.
• After verifying that the receiver and sensor are powered up, press the Test button on the sensor to
establish that the signal strength ( “Testing Signal
Strength (Wireless Controls),” p. 97 ) and the battery
life “Testing Battery Status (Wireless Controls),” p. 98 ) are adequate for proper functioning.
Disassociation (Wireless Controls)
The receiver disassociates from the sensor (by removing all stored association information), conducts a channel scan, and restarts itself, if any of the following are true:
• The receiver address is changed from its current setting (001–999)
UV-SVN03F-EN 99
UV-SVN03_.book Page 100 Thursday, January 24, 2013 5:27 PM
Diagnostics
• The receiver receives a disassociation notification from its associated sensor
• The receiver does not receive a communication from its associated sensor within 50 minutes.
• The sensor and receiver are associated and communicating at the time the sensor is set to 000 and the Test button is pressed.
Note: A disassociated sensor will transit an association request every 10 minutes.
Sensor/Receiver Compatibility (Wireless
Controls)
Version 1.5 (p/n X13790854 and X13790855) and higher receivers are compatible with all sensors models and support all functions. Receivers released prior to version
1.5 are compatible with only model WZS.
Replacing a Failed Sensor or Receiver
(Wireless Controls)
Note: Receivers ship installed on the unit. To remove the receiver, press in the retention tabs on the underside of the receiver enclosure and push upward.
To replace a failed sensor or receiver:
11. Confirm that the device is disassociated (see Table 35 and Table 36, p. 97 ).
12. Set the rotary address switch of the new device to match the address of the remaining sensor or receiver.
Note: There is no need to remove power from the remaining device.
13. Apply power to the new device. Association between the new and the remaining devices will automatically occur.
Note: When replacing a WDS sensor, the receiver
(version 1.5 or higher) will automatically configure the sensor to match the last stored configuration, if the sensor has not been placed into configuration mode and the factory default configuration is still valid. If the sensor configuration does not match the desired system features, it can be manually configured (see
).

Red SERVICE LED
(Tracer ZN520)
During normal operation, the LED is off continuously when power is applied to the controller.
If the LED is on continuously, even when power is applied to the controller means that someone is pressing the
SERVICE button or that the controller has failed.
If the LED flashes once every second, use Rover, Trane’s service tool, to restore the unit to normal operation. Refer to the Rover product literature for more information.
Note: If the Service button is held down for more than
15 seconds on the Tracer ZN520 controller, it will uninstall itself from the ICS communication network and shut down all unit operation.
Green STATUS LED
(Tracer ZN520)
During normal operation, the LED is on continuously.
If the LED blinks once, the controller is in Manual output test mode.
If the LED blinks twice the controller is in Manual output test mode, with one or more diagnostics present.
If the LED blinks (1/4 second on, 1/4 second off for 10 seconds) the controller is in the “Wink” mode.
Note: The “wink” feature allows the identification of a particular controller. When sending a request from a device, such as Rover, the controller will “wink” to indicate it received the signal.
102
If the LED is off, either the power is off, an abnormal condition is present or the TEST button is pressed.
Yellow COMM LED
(Tracer ZN520)
If the LED is off continuously, the controller is not detecting any communication. This is normal for units in standalone applications.
If the LED blinks, the controller detects communication.
If the LED is on continuously, this indicates an abnormal condition.
Manual Output Test
(Tracer ZN520)
The purpose of the manual output test sequence is to verify output and end device operation. Use the manual output test to:
• Verify output wiring and operation without using
Rover, service tool
• Force the water valve to open and balance the hydronic system
Note: The manual output test is not an automatic cycle.
You must press the TEST button to proceed through each step.
The controller observes all diagnostics that occur during the test sequence. Although an automatic diagnostic reset sequence exists as part of the controller’s normal operation, the automatic diagnostic reset feature is not active during the test sequence.
If left in an individual test step, the controller remains in test mode for 60 minutes and then exits to normal operation.
Many service calls are due to unit diagnostics. The test sequence resets unit diagnostics and attempts to restore normal unit operation prior to testing the outputs. If the diagnostics remain after a reset, the STATUS LED indicates the diagnostic condition is still present (two blinks).
Manual Output Test Procedure
(Tracer
ZN520)
Follow the procedure below to test Tracer ZN520 controllers.
1.
Press and hold the TEST button for at least two seconds (not exceeding 5 seconds), and then release, to start the test mode.
2. The test sequence will turn off all outputs and then attempt to clear all diagnostics.
3. Press the TEST button several more times (no more than once per second) to advance through the test sequence.
The outputs are not subject to minimum times during the test sequence. However, the test sequence only permits one step per second which limits minimum output time.
The green LED is turned off when the TEST button is pressed. To begin the manual output test mode, press and hold the TEST button (turning off the green LED) for at least
UV-SVN03F-EN

The fan will turn OFF when:
• The controller receives a communicated off signal
• The fan-speed switch is set to OFF if no communicated value is present
• Specific diagnostics are generated
• The default fan speed is set to OFF and the fan is operating in the Auto mode.
If the controller is in unoccupied mode, the fan cycles between OFF and the highest fan speed.
If the controller does not have power, the unit fan does not operate. For the controller to operate normally, it must have an input voltage of 24 Vac. If the Marquee/Power LED is OFF continuously, the controller does not have sufficient power or has failed.
Several diagnostics affect fan operation. For detailed information about these diagnostics, refer to
The controller must be properly configured based on the actual installed end devices and application. If the unit configuration does not match the actual end device, the fans may not work correctly.
Random start observed
Cycling fan operation/ continuous
Unoccupied operation
After power-up, the controller always observes a random start from 5 to 30 seconds. The controller remains OFF until the random start time expires.
The controller continuously operates the fan when in the occupied, occupied standby, or occupied bypass mode.
When the controller is in the unoccupied mode, the fan is cycled between high speed and OFF with capacity.
Even if the controller is configured for continuous fan operation, the fan normally cycles with capacity during unoccupied mode. While unoccupied, the fan cycles ON or
OFF with heating/cooling to provide varying amounts of heating or cooling to the space.
Fan mode off If a local fan mode switch determines the fan operation, the
OFF position controls the fan to off.
Requested mode off
The user can communicate a desired operating mode (such
as OFF, heat, and cool) to the controller. If OFF is communicated to the controller, the unit controls the fan to off. There is no heating or cooling.

Troubleshooting (ECM)
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects and discharge all motor start/run capacitors before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives or other energy storing components provided by Trane or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all capacitors have discharged. Failure to disconnect power and discharge capacitors before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
UV-SVN03F-EN
WARNING
Safety Alert!
You MUST follow all recommendations below. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.
• The BLDC motors contain capacitors which store residual energy. Please keep clear of the fan wheels for 5 minutes after the power has been removed from the system, as a power request with the motor powered off, could result in a very short period of actuation. Unplugging the motor is adequate to ensure that there will be no power request.
• The adapter boards contain high voltage.
Configuration adjustments to the ECM engine board should be made through the SMALLER of the two low-voltage lids on the front of the control panel, through the low-voltage insulation/shielding.
• Initial hookups to the CSTI and standard adapter boards, including low voltage interconnections, must be made with the power off.
• Do not make connections to the motors or the adapter boards while power is ON. Do not remove connections to the motor or the adapter boards while the power is ON.
Notes:
• The new Trane BLDC system is a closed loop system that has equipment protections and envelope enforcements. Do not assume that the motor has failed without first consulting the ECM engine status/ diagnostics screen. In many cases, the engine shuts down the motor operation and locks it out to prevent equipment damage.
• Electric Heat operation and Changeover Coil control on
CSTI units are co-coordinated by the ECM engine board. Changeover function on Tracer ZN units can also be affected by incorrect configuration of the ECM engine or improper wiring of terminals to analog

input 1 on the Tracer ZN controller (polarity sensitivity).
• The mini-access lid on the front of the main control panel lid has the ECM engine troubleshooting/setup guide affixed to the back of the lid. This guide is unitspecific and should be consulted before determining the disposition of a unit.
General Information (ECM)
The ECM engine oversees and monitors all motor operations and changes to speed resulting from:
• Direct Fan Speed Requests
– Customer Fan Speed Switches
– Thermostat Fan Speed, On or 0–10V requests
– Automatic Fan Request from Tracer ZN / UC controllers
• Indirect Fan Speed Requests
– Electric Heat requests will bring the fan to the proper speed.
• Conflicting Fan Speed Requests
– If two or more commands are received (direct or indirect), the fan will honor the higher speed requested.
Note: In some cases, indirect requests will result in fan behavior change regardless of whether the enddevice fails to actuate (due to device failure, or safety/down-stream lockouts).
The ECM engine board also coordinates the operation of
Electric Heat, Electric/Hydronic Heat lockouts, and CSTI
Changeover coil operation.
Troubleshooting Information (ECM)
General system troubleshooting tips (ECM)
• ECM engine configuration must perfectly match the factory-supplied ECM.
– Refer to
“ECM Overview and Setup,” p. 45 for
troubleshooting configuration of the engine board.
• The ECM engine will display troubleshooting information, and contains dual tachometers to aid in performance verification.
• Under normal circumstances, the ECM engine display will display the operational status of the motors and electric heat circuit/sensors, however, a malfunction will drive a priority display mode that will present the error code instantly to the screen. The error must be cleared by solving by powering down, removing the cause of the problem and restarting the engine board.
• Engine Label setup document (affixed to the back of the low voltage access lid) should be used to verify engine configuration settings.
• For proper operation of the system, all plugs must be firmly seated in all boards and motors. Insecure
106 connections will cause malfunction and the system will shutdown.
• Do not unplug or plug-in motors or connectors while the system is receiving a speed request of any kind.
The system must be powered down before plugging or un-plugging connections to the adapter boards, engine boards or motors. Failure do so will register diagnostics or cause unsafe operation and reduction in the contact life of the connectors.
• The motor will not spin if plugged in while the ECM engine is requesting power.
Troubleshooting a motor that does not spin, or spins too slowly (ECM)
The motor connections and motor plug connections to the adapter boards should be secure. Unit should be powered off to check the fit of the connectors.
When configured correctly, the system will always respond positively to direct, indirect, and conflicting speed requests with very few exceptions:
These exceptions are:
1.
If a motor has been locked out due to engine locked rotor protection:
– Assuming Motor 1 has an obstruction. In this case, the “Status Display” will be interrupted to display:
→ →
Solution: i. Remove obstruction from the fan wheel.
ii. Ensure that motor plugs and all plugs to adapter boards and the ECM engine board are secure iii. Verify that the configuration does not specify a motor that is physically missing. Most units require only one motor. The controller is made aware of the missing motor by specifying all speeds related to Motor 2 to 0 rpm.
iv. Verify that
and
, the low motor signal output limits, are set correctly.
2. If a motor has been locked out due to overspeed or runaway condition:
– Assuming Motor 1 has an overspeed condition. In this case, the “Status Display” will be interrupted to display:
→ →
Solution: i. Ensure that set-screw is attached firmly to the motor shaft.
ii. Ensure that motor plugs and all plugs to adapter boards and the ECM engine board are secure.
iii. Verify that the configuration does not specify a speed lower than 450 rpm for the affected motor.
Speeds below 450 rpm are not supported on fancoil units.

3. VSP Inputs (0–10V inputs) are of the wrong polarity
– Verify that variable speed (VSP) inputs are properly wired to 1TB4.
Notes:
• Do not short the courtesy 10 Vdc supply to chassis or loads that require greater than 10 mA of DC current.
• Please observe proper polarity of 0–10 Vdc inputs.
Failure to observe proper polarity can cause failure of the ECM engine board, the customer-supplied controller or the Tracer ZN controller.
4. Customer Controller output signal to VSP Inputs are too low.
Note: If the customer supplied controller outputs signals that are below the noise threshold, they will be ignored by the ECM Engine.
– The ECM Engine board contains an adjustable noise floor parameter,
that can be configured to reject signals below the noise floor.
– If the noise floor parameter is set too high, it can be lowered as long as there are acceptable noise levels on the inputs lines.
Troubleshooting a motor that spins too fast, or spins without any apparent speed request
(ECM)
Typical equipment and controls design practice will ensure that the fans will come on if there is a call for heat, cool, or ventilation. In most cases, we will depend on the controller/thermostat to call for the fan to come on when appropriate, but during calls for electric heat, or calls for heat on CSTI units equipped with electric heat, as a call for the appropriate fan speed. This behavior, as described previously, is an indirect request.
When a call for electric heat is made, the system will positively drive the fan on to the correct speed, regardless of whether the controller has asked for fan operation or not. The unit design incorporates an interlock instead of a lock-out. (It does not lock out electric heat if the fan is set to off; it brings the fan on.)
Notes:
• In many cases, indirect requests will result in fan behavior change regardless of whether the end-device fails to actuate (due to device failure, or safety/downstream lockouts). If there is hot water available on CSTI units with changeover coils and electric heat, we will still drive the fan to the appropriate electric heat speed.
• The new fan coil designs incorporate sophisticated fan interlocks that will lockout heat if there is a fan failure.
If the preceding conditions do not describe the behavior of the unit, the following checks should be performed:
• Verify that the voltage jumper on the motor plug harness is absent for 208-230V units and 277V units. If the jumper is present for these units, the motor
UV-SVN03F-EN
Diagnostics
electronics will be damaged, and the motor will not be controllable.
• Verify that the fan speed request is not below 450 rpm.
Speeds below 450 rpm are not supported on the fancoil product.
• Verify that the all binary inputs to the customer terminal blocks are of proper and consistent polarity.
– For CSTI units, the fan inputs and end device inputs on TB3 must receive signals that are 24 Vac with respect to the unit chassis.
Note: Do not short 24 Vac (pos 1 or pos 2) to chassis; refer to the unit schematic.
– For Fan Speed Switch units, that incorporate the
Tracer ZN/CSTI adapter board, all inputs to TB3 must be 24 Vac with respect to unit chassis.
Note: Do not short 24 Vac (pos 1 or pos 2) to chassis; refer to the unit schematic.
– For Tracer ZN units, where there is a desire to use parallel fan inputs on the adapter board TB3 strip, the inputs must be COM (i.e., the inputs will honor only 0 V with respect to unit chassis).
Note: Do not short 24 Vac (pos 1 or pos 2) to chassis; refer to the unit schematic.
• Verify that variable speed (VSP) inputs are properly wired to 1TB4.
Notes:
• Do not short the courtesy 10 Vdc supply to chassis or loads that require greater than 10 mA of DC current.
• Please observe proper polarity of 0–10 Vdc inputs.
Failure to observe proper polarity can cause failure of the ECM Engine board, the customer-supplied controller or the Tracer ZN controller.
• Verify that the signal on the VSP inputs is noise free.
The ECM engine board contains an adjustable noise floor parameter,
, that can be configured to reject signals below the noise floor.
Note: If the customer supplied controller outputs signals that are below the noise threshold, they will be ignored by the ECM engine.
• Verify that VSP input settings are correct. The ECM engine board contains an adjustable digital amplifier,
, to compensate for long 10 Vdc cable runs. For normalized (0–10 Vdc) signals, this setting should be set to 1.000. If it is set too high, the motors will faster than the requested ratio, and will hit the limit
before the input voltage has reached its upper limit.
• Verify that
and
, the low motor signal output limits, are set correctly.

Replacing ECM Components
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects and discharge all motor start/run capacitors before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives or other energy storing components provided by Trane or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all capacitors have discharged. Failure to disconnect power and discharge capacitors before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Safety Alert!
You MUST follow all recommendations below. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.
• The BLDC motors contain capacitors which store residual energy. Please keep clear of the fan wheels for 5 minutes after the power has been removed from the system, as a power request with the motor powered off, could result in a very short period of actuation. Unplugging the motor is adequate to ensure that there will be no power request.
• The adapter boards contain high voltage.
Configuration adjustments to the ECM engine board should be made through the SMALLER of the two low-voltage lids on the front of the control panel, through the low-voltage insulation/shielding.
• Initial hookups to the CSTI and standard adapter board, including low voltage interconnections, must be made with the power off.
• Do not make connections to the motors or the adapter boards while power is ON. Do not remove connections to the motor or the adapter boards while the power is ON.
• Caution should be taken to stay clear of hazardous voltages, moving parts and electric heat elements while making adjustments to the ECM engine board.
If it is not practical to stay clear of these areas during adjustment of the ECM engine board, please contact
Trane Global Parts for configuration kit that allows easy powering of the engine board outside of the unit with a 9V battery.
• For safe operation, it is necessary to configure replacement boards to match the setup/switch configuration of the previously installed boards.
• Ensure that new circuit modules are firmly seated on the nylon standoffs, and that the nylon standoffs are firmly seated on the metal panel.
108
NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
The motor harness attached to the single plug to which the motor mates contains the very important 115V motor voltage jumper; the motor harness should always be present for 115V units and should not be modified or substituted. Failure to follow this instruction could result in equipment damage.
Notes:
• Ensure that drip-loops are maintained on wiring on pipe end of unit to avoid wicking of water into the unit.
• Before assuming that any of the boards or components in the new system have failed, please ensure that the
ECM engine board has been configured correctly and that the switches on the CSTI board (where applicable) are set correctly.
• It is necessary to configure the service replacement
ECM engine board before commissioning the unit. The
ECM engine board is pre-configured with safe values, but will NOT work correctly unless properly configured.
• Only genuine Trane ® replacement components with identical Trane part numbers should be used.
• Unit fan assemblies contain concealed wires that should be removed before the fan-board is removed, to avoid nicking the wire.
• Care should be maintained to retain the order of the motors with respect to the motor plugs. On a unit with two motors, the double-shafted motor will always be to the left side, and will be designated as Motor 2 by the controller.
Tips:
• Ensure that motor nameplate voltage is the same as unit voltage (for 3-phase/ 4-wire units with Neutral, motor voltage will be L-N, not L1-L2).
• Ensure that motor harness is correct (harness will have jumper installed for 115V units only).
• Ensure that configuration on ECM Engine matches the affixed label.
• Maintain correct plug/motor association. The plugs will have the motor number and shaft configuration printed on an affixed label.
• Ensure that configuration of switches on CSTI adapter board matches depiction of switches on the unit schematic.
• Ensure that all wires are plugged in securely.
• Ensure that edge protection on sharp edges, grommets, and wire management devices are maintained when replacing components.
• Ensure that blunt-tip screws are used when in the proximity of wire harnesses.

Circuit Modules Replacement Notes/Work
Instructions
1.
Circuit modules are equipped with nylon standoffs which can either be removed by squeezing the barbs at the rear of the control panel, or squeezing the latch above the circuit module. If the latter method is chosen, the standoffs will be retained on the metal panel. The new standoffs (affixed to the replacement modules) can be removed if necessary, so the new module circuit board can be attached to the retained standoffs.

Softsetting the IMC Address of an ECM
Engine Module
When a blower coil, fan-coil, or unit ventilator application requires an ECM engine module, the Tracer UC400 requires that the ECM engine module be configured at IMC address 99. If an engine module is found at an address other than 99 (as it will be in a field application / hardware replacement scenario), Tracer TU populates the Expansion
Module box on the Controller Status screen as shown here.
4. Ensure that the new ECM engine controller is configured to match the ECM engine configuration label that is present on the unit. It is necessary to configure the ECM engine board to avoid improper
