Alarms and Events
An event can be any type of activity that is detected by theTracer system. An event that is triggeredby the detection of an abnormal or critical operating condition is generally considered to be analarm.
The Alarms and Events Log
The Alarms and Events page (Figure 10) inTracer SC contains a list of alarms and events that havebeen detected by the system.The data displayed in the log includes when and where the eventoccurred and whether operator acknowledgement is required. An operator can add comments toindividual events, remove or export events from the log, and sort events by column headings.
Notification Classes
Notification classes are assigned to points. Each notification class specifies the informationnecessary to send an event message between two devices in a BACnet network. (Typically, thereceiver of the event message will be aTracer SC or some other supervisory device in the network.)
The information specific to the notification class includes the address (BACnet Device ID) of thedevice that is to receive a message, a seven-day schedule that defines when the message will besent, and the state transitions that require that an operator acknowledges receipt of the message.
Each notification class includes a priority number that is mapped to a severity value (see “SeverityMapping,” p. 30).
Tracer SC currently contains the following four notification classes for events.
• HVAC—Critical
• HVAC—Service Required
• HVAC—Warning
• HVAC—Information
Figure 10. Alarms and Events log
BAS-SVX31F-EN 29
Alarms and Events
The Classes page (Figure 11, p. 29) contains a section for each notification class.
Figure 11. Classes page
Each section contains a table with the following information:
• Transition type—A point is always in one of the following three states.The state of a point isdetermined by its internal logic. When a point changes from its current state to another state,a transition has occurred and an event is generated by the point.
– Off Normal: Indicates that the object is functioning correctly, but the value is outside the user-defined range.
– To Fault: Indicates that the object is not functioning correctly and the value is unreliable.
– To Normal: Indicates that the object is functioning correctly and the value is within the user-defined range.
• Priority—An editable number, assigned to each transition type, that assigns the transition to aseverity value.
30 BAS-SVX31F-EN
Alarms and Events
• Mapped to severity—This column shows the severity value that the transition type is assignedto (see “Severity Mapping,” p. 30). (The severity value icon appears in the severity column ofthe Alarms and Events log).
• Operator acknowledgement—Defines whether or not a building operator needs toacknowledge an alarm in the event log. Acknowledgement of an alarm records the time/dateand the user ID of the operator, which is displayed in the event log. Alarms requiringacknowledgement cannot be removed from the log until they have been acknowledged.
A more details button, at the bottom of each section, opens a page that provides more informationabout the notification class (Figure 12).
Figure 12. Example of an notification class details example
The severity mapping button on this page opens the Severity Mapping page (see “SeverityMapping,” p. 30, for more information).
Severity Mapping
Events may be assigned one of four severity values.This value appears in the severity column onthe Alarms and Events page.The severity column provides a way to sort the log according to theseverity of events and alarms.
Severity values in theTracer SC are:
• Critical: For alarms that require the immediate attention of service personnel. In general,indicates a major failure of equipment resulting in possible property damage or excessivetenant comfort issues. Examples: Compressor failure; an emergency shutdown.
• Service Required: For alarms that require the attention of service personnel. Examples: Asensor failure; a dirty filter.
• Advisory: For alarms that do not affect the operation of the system but may be of concern toa user. Examples: A custom system control event; a user override of system equipment.
BAS-SVX31F-EN 31
Alarms and Events
• Information: For events that need to be tracked but are not considered to be alarms. Examples:A lighting system being turned on; a user logging on to the system
Severity values are assigned to notification classes by associating them with priority numbers.Each of the three transition types of each notification class can be assigned a severity value (seeFigure 10, p. 28).
You can view the assignment of priority numbers to severity values by viewing the Severity
Mapping page (Figure 13). View this page by clicking either severity mapping or classes from theleft navigation menu.

The Severity Mapping page shows the relationship between the priority number and the severityvalue for each notification class.You can change the severity value that is assigned to a prioritynumber by using the actions menu and selecting change severity.
Event E-Mail Routing
ATracer SC can route e-mails containing event information to specified users.To initiate e-mailrouting, routing rules must be configured.
An event routing rule dictates that events mapped to a specified severity value be sent to a specifiedoperator.The rule contains a routing schedule that specifies when e-mails are sent.
Routing rules are created on the Create Routing Rule page. After saving a routing rule, it appearson the Routing Event E-mail page.

Data Logs
Data logs (also referred to as trends) are automatically created for equipment and applications bytheTracer SC during the installation process. With proper security access, system users can edit,delete, enable, and disable these data logs, as well as create new data logs.
Two types of data logs can be created:
• Scheduled:This type of data log collects data based on a scheduled start and stop time.
• Triggered:This type of data log collects data when triggered by a condition. For example, atriggered data log could be set up to log the temperature of a space only when the fan isrunning.
Data logs can be viewed in real-time or at a later time, and in either graphical or tabular format.They can also be printed and exported.
BAS-SVX31F-EN 41
Spaces
Spaces refers to equipment that controls a single space, such as:

Systems
Tracer SC supports three system applications:
• Area
• Variable Air Systems (VAS)
• Chiller Plant Control (CPC)
The individual pages for each system component allow you to view status, configure the systemand its functions, and to view and add members.
Area Application
The Area application assigns unit controllers, binary outputs, and binary values to be members ofa specified area.The primary function of the Area application is to coordinate the start and stop ofequipment within application-specified areas according to a schedule or with the use oftemperature- and humidity-based algorithms in the unoccupied mode.
The Area application allows such functions as synchronizing member setpoints and controlling alarge number of devices to be performed as one efficient operation.The Area application can useone of six algorithms, along with area temperatures and humidity inputs, to make economizingdecisions.The application supports optimal start/stop, humidity pulldown, night purge,unoccupied heating/cooling, unoccupied humidify, unoccupied dehumidify, and timed overridefunctions.
For programming information, see theTracer™ SC Air Systems Application Guide (BAS-APG007).
Variable Air Systems (VAS) Application
The Variable Air Systems (VAS) application coordinates air-handling units, variable-air-volume(VAV) boxes, and ventilation equipment.With aTracer SC, you can view currentVAS conditions andoperating status, configure the system settings, and view equipment.
You can also calibrate and auto-commission all VAV members, and override air and water valvesfor selected members.
For programming information, see theTracer™ SC Air Systems Application Guide (BAS-APG007).
Chiller Plant Control (CPC) Application
The Chiller Plant Control (CPC) application coordinates chillers and provides system chilled watercontrol. It controls the leaving-water temperature by adding chillers as the building cooling loadincreases, calculates the chilled water setpoint for each chiller, and recovers from failures bystarting the next chiller in the sequence immediately after a chiller is marked as failed.
CPC optimizes energy use by subtracting chillers when the requirements of the cooling loaddecreases. In addition, CPC matches chillers to the building load, equalizes runtime and wear oneach chiller by using different rotation schemes. For programming information, see theTracer™ SCChiller Plant Control Program Application Guide (BAS-APG012).
46 BAS-SVX31F-EN
Points
In an automated building control system, points are the building blocks used to create a controlsystem.They are used in setpoints, controlling outputs on a device, reading the values of hardwareinputs and holding calculated data. In addition, points provide the only means to generate androute alarms to the event log.
TheTracer SC defines points in two ways:
User-defined: You can create points to use, for example, with aTGP program or to monitor atemperature for alarming.
System-defined: These points are created when you create an Area, aVAS, and when you installequipment or spaces.
PointsTypes
TheTracer SC classifies points according to one of three types (analog, binary, multistate) and oneof three functions (input, output, value). In total, there are nine point types:
• Analog inputs—These are typically values such as room temperature or air flow pressuregenerated by a sensor or device. Inputs points obtain their value from a selected referencer.Input points are typically used to read values from other controllers such as LonTalk devices orunit controller input points.
• Analog outputs—These are used to control devices such as damper actuators or water valves,or to provide setpoints to control other devices. Analog outputs can be controlled andoverridden by using priority control.
• Analog values—These are points that have real number values. Analog values do not containreferencers but can be controlled and overridden by using priority control. Value points aretypically used for calculated values or setpoints.
• Binary inputs—These are typically two-state inputs, such as on/off or alarm/normal. Binaryinputs are generated by switching devices. Inputs points obtain their value from a selectedreferencer. Input points are typically used to read values from other controllers such as LonTalkdevices or unit controller input points.
• Binary outputs—These points are typically used to turn devices on or off. Binary outputs canbe controlled and overridden by using priority control.
• Binary values—These points can only be true or false. Binary values do not contain referencersbut can be controlled and overridden by using priority control. Value points are typically usedfor calculated values or setpoints.
• Multistate inputs—Multistate points have between 1 and 20 states.Text is displayed for eachstate rather than a numerical value. Inputs points obtain their value from a selected referencer.Input points are typically used to read values from other controllers such as LonTalk devices orunit controller input points.
• Multistate outputs—Multistate points have between 1 and 20 states.Text is displayed for eachstate rather than a numerical value. Multistate outputs can send their values to a definedreferencer and can be controlled and overridden by using priority control. Multistate outputsare typically setpoints that are sent to controllers such as occupancy or heat cool mode requeston LonTalk controllers.
• Multistate values—Multistate points have between 1 and 20 states.Text is displayed for eachstate rather than a numerical value. Multistate values do not contain referencers but can becontrolled and overridden by using priority control. Multistate values are typically calculatedvalues in controllers or applications such as such as occupancy status or heat cool mode status.

Points are highlighted in the name column on Details pages.
Note: The items in black type in the name column are internal equipment properties, formonitoring only.They cannot be changed.
Point Overrides
An override refers to the action of a user taking control of a point rather than allowing the systemto control it. Point values can be overridden for output and value points by users who have beenassigned a priority level that gives them override capability. Priority levels of 1–16 exist, with 1being the highest.The following four priority levels have been pre-assigned for user overrides:
• 1: Life Safety - Manual
• 8: Manual Override High
• 11: Manual Override Medium
• 13: Manual Override Low (the default for user overrides)
A user with a priority level higher than 13 has advanced override capability.
Overrides take place based on a user’s priority level. If a user with a higher priority level hasperformed an override, an override entered by a user with a lower priority level will not take effectuntil the entry by the higher priority user clears.
Points appearing with the following icon on their right can be overridden: .
52 BAS-SVX31F-EN

A temperature setpoint can be communicated to a unit controller in three ways:• From theTracer system• From the sensor thumbwheel• From the values stored in the unit controller
This section explains how to determine the source of the space temperature setpoint and how tochange the setpoint source for VAV boxes.
Determining the SpaceTemperature Setpoint Source
The space temperature setpoint source for a unit is determined by the following two points:
• SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS
• SpaceTemperature Setpoint Use Local
If SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS is in service, the unit uses the setpoint sent from theTracer SC.If the SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS is out of service, the unit uses either the thumbwheel or itslocally stored setpoint; the decision is based on the following conditions:
• If the SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS is out of service and SpaceTemperature Setpoint Uselocal is enabled, the unit uses the thumbwheel.
• If the SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS is out of service and SpaceTemperature Setpoint Uselocal is disabled, the unit uses the locally stored setpoints for control.

Changing theTemperature Setpoint Control for VAV Boxes
The method of changing the setpoint control depends on how the VAV box is receiving thetemperature setpoint.
Tracer System Control
If the SpaceTemperature BAS is out of service (the temperature setpoint value is controlled by athumbwheel or a locally stored setpoint), you can change the control to theTracer system asfollows:
1. From the Spaces list page, click on the appropriateVAV box. On the status page for theVAV box,click configure.
2. In the Setpoint section, select the check box to the right of the SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS.
3. From the actions button, select place in service.
The VAV box will use the value communicated by theTracer system to calculate its activesetpoint:
• If theVAV box is in heating and occupied mode, the active setpoint is the SpaceTemperatureSetpoint BAS – Occupied Offset.
• If theVAV box is in cooling and occupied mode, the active setpoint is the SpaceTemperatureSetpoint BAS + Occupied Offset.

Points
Thumbwheel Control
If the SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS is in service (that is, if the temperature setpoint value iscontrolled by theTracer system), you can change the control to the thumbwheel as follows:
1. From the Spaces list page, click on the appropriateVAV box. On the status page for theVAV box,click configure.
2. In the Setpoint section, select the check box to the right of SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS.
3. From the actions menu, select place out of service.
This action removes the control of the setpoint from theTracer system.
4. Select edit at the top of the page.
5. To enable the SpaceTemperature Setpoint Use Local value, select enabled from the drop box.Then select save.
The VAV box will use the value communicated by the thumbwheel to calculate its active setpoint.
Note: If thumbwheel control fails, the controller will revert to the locally stored setpoint.
Locally Stored Setpoint Control
If SpaceTemperature BAS is enabled (that is, if the temperature setpoint is controlled by theTracersystem or the thumbwheel), you can change control of the setpoint to its locally stored value asfollows:
1. From the Spaces list page, click on the appropriateVAV box. On the status page for theVAV box,click configure.
2. In the Setpoint section, select the check box to the right of SpaceTemperature Setpoint BAS

Schedules
You can create, edit, and delete schedules.
Note: Scheduling forTracer SC is based on the BACnet schedule object implementation. Fordetails, see BACnet standard 135-2008.
Viewing Schedules
The All Schedules page shows all schedules in the facility.The Active Schedules page shows onlythe schedules that are active for the day.
Creating Schedules
You can create a schedule to control the following points and applications based on time and date:
• Binary outputs and values
• Analog outputs and values
• Multistate outputs and values
• Equipment, spaces, and system applications (typically referred to as HVAC schedules).
Note: Points and applications are referred to as members when they are assigned to a schedule.Members can be assigned to only one schedule during the same effective period. Membersmust be the correct type; that is, a binary point cannot be included in an analog schedule.
After a schedule is created, the resultant appears in the schedule viewer.The schedule viewershows the occupied and unoccupied events, optional optimization events, and any exceptions thatmay have been applied. See Figure 29, p. 59 for an example schedule.
Optimal Start/Stop
Optimal start and stop times can be defined for HVAC schedules. HVAC refers to both Area andequipment.
The schedule coordinates with the Area application or equipment to calculate when the optimalstart and stop occurs. Optimal start/stop times are based on outside air conditions, spacetemperature, and occupied setpoints.
Exceptions and Calendars
Exceptions are temporary modifications to a schedule. Exceptions contain one set of dates or onerepeating pattern of dates.
Calendars
For multiple dates and repeating patterns a calendar can be created, which is then applied to theexception.
Calendars are used to group dates, which can then have exceptions applied to these dates on aschedule. For example, a school could use a calendar to group the days that require extendedoperating hours for PTA meetings.
Release function
The release function is a predetermined time in which the present schedule or the event releasescontrol over to the next event based on priority. Conceptually, a scheduled release is very similarto a timed override.
For example, in Figure 29, p. 59, after the daily schedule ends at 12:00 am (midnight), the schedulereleases control over to the next event.
BAS-SVX31F-EN 59

Connecting aTracer SC to a Building Network
Today, most business systems use Internet Protocol (IP) networks. ATracer building automationsystem can exist on an IP network along with the other business systems. An IP network allows allapplications on the network to be accessed from a single PC. All networks referred to in this guideare IP networks.
A single IP network can exist in a single building or can connect a group of buildings separated byseveral feet or hundreds of miles. An IP network that is confined to a single building or group ofbuildings is referred to as a local area networks (LAN). LANs can be connected together over anydistance by using telephone lines and radio waves. A system of LANs connected in this way iscalled a wide area network (WAN).
Network Pre-installation
Before installing aTracer SC on a network, determine if the network will be used on one or moreTracer SCs and if the network will be divided into subnets. Meet with the owner’s IT staff to discusswhere theTracer SCs are to be located and to obtain required information and equipment.
Single and MultipleTracer SCs Networks
Note: Systems that require communication between multipleTracer SCs will be supported in afutureTracer SC release. Please contact yourTrane representative for more information.
Figure 37 shows a multi-Tracer SC network.TwoTracer SCs are connected to a PC by an Ethernetswitch.TheTracer SC on the left still has its IP address.TheTracer SC on the right has had its IPaddress changed so that it is unique.The PC has the recommended IP address (see “Making aDirect Connection BetweenYour PC and aTracer SC,” p. 13).
Networks with Multiple Subnets
Large complex networks are often divided into segments called subnets (Figure 38). It is crucial toinvolve the customer’s IT staff in setting up such networks.
Note: You can use the memo on p. 128 to communicate with the IT staff about networkingrequirements.

Connecting aTracer SC to a Building Network
Subnets make network communication more efficient. A typical subnet might consist of, forexample, all the equipment at one geographic location, in one building, or on a single LAN (if thenetwork is a WAN).
A router is used to separate a network into subnets and to control excessive network traffic, whichcan slow network performance. Some broadcast messages (messages that are sent to all deviceson an entire network) are not needed by all devices. Devices on the same subnet have IP andgateway addresses with a common IP routing prefix (see Figure 38).The router managescommunication between the subnets by using the gateway addresses to determine whichmessages pass from one subnet to another.

Note: A memo is available for communicating with the customer’s IT staff about the informationthat must be obtained from them for network installation; see p. 128.
IP address
A unique IP address is required for eachTracer SC for all networks.Tracer SCs can use either:
• A permanently assigned (static) IP address, or
• An address that is sent from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.The DHCPserver must be set up to send theTracer SC the same reserved IP address each time theTracerSC connects to the DHCP server.
You can obtain IP addresses from the customer’s IT staff.
To edit the IP address of aTracer SC:
1. Click Edit from the IP Configuration section on the Identification and Communications page(Figure 39, p. 73).
To edit the network address for one or both Ethernet Network ports:

Port ForwardingThrough a Firewall
For security, all ports to the Internet and most network ports are closed so that unauthorized trafficcannot by passed from the Internet into the building’s internal IP network. A port can be openedto traffic by configuring the network firewall to allow the traffic from that port to be forwarded toan internal IP address. (See Figure 42, p. 77, for a network illustration.)
The port can be configured either:
• By the IT staff, or
• By the technician, who will
a. Obtain the external IP address of the firewall by either logging on to the firewallconfiguration page or by browsing to www.myipaddress.com from behind the firewall.
b. Enter the IP address of the masterTracer SC as the destination address (internal IP addressof the firewall) for Port 80TCP (HTTP) and Port 443TCP (HTTPS) in the port forwardingconfiguration for the firewall.
Virtual Private Network (VPN) Connection

Expanded Communication Options
In large complex facilities, such as a college campus, it can be challenging to provide highperformance and communication with oneTracer SC working with third party devices.
New forTracer SC version 3.5 are expanded communication options that provide improvedperformance, job layout options, and non-Trane device integration.These options uses oneTracerSC that serves as the master (SC-App) and controls all applications (schedules, systems, reports,and so forth), andTracer SC base controllers that serve as communication gateways. With thislayout, aTracer SC installation can utilize:
• Two MS/TP links with 60 devices on each link
• Four MS/TP links with 30 devices on each link
• Many other configurations
The expanded communication option also allows for increased integration options with non-TraneBACnet systems. Figure 43 illustrates a sample job layout with an additionalTracer SC that servesas a base module and non-Trane devices with slower baud rates.
Note: Please contactTrane Product Support in St. Paul to assist with implementation and provideup-to-date support.

Licensing and Hardware
The number of devices that are supported is limited by the number within the application license.The maximum amount is 120 devices in a single license. As ofTracer SC version 3.0, allTracer SCsship with a base license installed.
To utilize the expanded communications functionality, the following is required:
• OneTracer SC with an Application license
• One or moreTracer SCs with a Base license
Setup Requirements
The following are required for setup and resulting normal operation:
• OneTracer SC with an Application license (Tracer SC-App).
– Must be licensed to support the number of devices that will be controlled.
• One or moreTracer SCs with a Base license (Tracer SC-Base).
– TheTracer SC-Base ships with a Base license installed at the factory; an additional Baselicense is not required.
• Ethernet Port 1 must be used for BACnet setup.
• TheTracer SC Device IDs must be unique.
• BACnet MS/TP port network numbers cannot exceed 4193.
• If theTracer SCs reside on subnets, oneTracer SC must be set as a BBMD on each subnet.
• UDP ports must be the same in the Application and Base SCs.
Both theTracer SC-App and theTracer SC-Base must be configured to communicate to each otherover BACnet/IP.They can reside on the same network subnet or on a separate subnet.

Ethernet Network Wiring
Ethernet network wiring requirements are described in this section.
Network Wiring Specifications
Trane requires Cat5, 5e, or 6 cable for Ethernet network wiring.
The Ethernet port on theTracer SC supports only twisted-pair wire (10BaseT or 100BaseT) withRJ45 connectors. With twisted-pair wiring, one pair is used to receive data signals and the otherpair is used to transmit data signals.
If a direct connection between two devices is required, use a straight-through or crossover cable.If multiple devices are required to communicate, use an Ethernet switch.
The EIA/TIA cabling standard recommends a maximum segment length of 295 ft (90 m) betweenthe wire termination equipment in the wiring closet and the wall plate in the office.Thisrecommendation provides 33 ft (10 m) of cable allowance to accommodate patch cables at eachend of the link and signal losses in intermediate wire terminations on the link.
Note: Cable installations must comply with both federal and local codes. Plenum-rated cable isavailable to meet NEC Article 725, which addresses flame resistance and smoke emissionfor signal cables
Important: Due to the high precision required when performing twisted-pair wire terminations,Trane recommends that only qualified technicians with the proper equipmenthandle all terminations and splicing.
Twisted-pair wire distance limits for Ethernet communication are given in the following table:
Fiber-Optic Cable Recommendations
Fiber-optic cable can be used for networks involving long distances, inter-building cabling, andareas with a potential for electrical noise. Fiber optic signals are less susceptible to electrical noise,including lightning, EMI/RFI, voltage conductors, and ground loops.
Fiber-Optic Cable
Trane requires duplex, 62.5 m core glass fiber-optic cable with ST connectors, which comes in avariety of types for specific applications, such as indoor, outdoor, burial, aerial, and duct.You canorder fiber-optic cable, fiber-optic modems, ST-type crimp connectors, epoxy connectors, and otheraccessories fromTrane Buying Group suppliers.
Important: Trane recommends that only qualified and experienced fiber-optic techniciansprepare the fiber-optic end connectors and cable run lengths. Improper methodsmay result in faulty communication due to signal degradation (decibel loss), whichmust be less than 14 dB on each fiber.
Fiber-Optic Media Converter
Fiber-optic media converters converts the electrical signals from a twisted pair of wires to opticalsignals, which are sent over the fiber-optic cable.Trane supports the following fiber-optic mediaconverters:
• Connect Air Int. W4869 for connecting fiber-optic cable to 10BaseT wire (Figure 44, p. 84)
• AlliedTelesyn AT-MC101 XL for connecting fiber-optic cable to 100BaseT wire

Ethernet Network Wiring
Figure 44 shows a port for a fiber-optic cable (TX and RX) and a 10BaseT port for connecting themedia converter to theTracer SC. At the other end is a 12 Vdc port to connect power to the mediaconverter.
To wire a fiber-optic media converter on an inter-building network, follow these procedures (seeFigure 45, p. 85):
1. In Building A, connect the power supply to the 12 Vdc port on media converter A1.
2. Connect the 10BaseT cable from theTracer SC to the 10BaseT port on media converter A1.
3. Connect the terminated fibers to the fiber opticTX-RX connections on media converter A1.
4. In Building B, connect the power supply to the 12 Vdc port on media converter B1.
5. Connect the fiber-optic cables from media converter A1 to theTX-RX connections on mediaconverter B1, observing reversed polarity.
6. If only oneTracer SC exists on the network in Building B, connect 10BaseT cable from theTracerSC to the 10BaseT port on media converter B1 to complete the fiber-optic network betweenBuildings A and B.
If multipleTracer SCs exist within the building, connect 10BaseT cable from media converterB1 to a hub that connects theTracer SCs.
If another fiber connection is desired (as shown in Figure 45), connect 10BaseT cable frommedia converter B1 to a hub that connects theTracer SC(s), and connect 10BaseT cable fromthe hub to another media converter (B2).
7. Connect the power supply to the 12 Vdc port on media converter B2.
8. Connect terminated fiber-optic cables to theTX-RX connection on media converter B2.
9. Add a media converter (C1) in Building C. Connect the power supply to its 12 Vdc port.
10. Connect terminated fiber-optic cables from media converter B2 to theTX-RX connection onmedia converter C1, observing reversed polarity.
11. If only oneTracer SC exists on the network in Building C (as shown in Figure 45), connect10BaseT cable from theTracer SC to the 10BaseT port on media converter C1 to complete thefiber-optic network for Buildings A, B, and C.
If multipleTracer SCs exist within the building, connect 10BaseT cable from media converterC1 to a hub that connects theTracer SCs.
If another fiber connection is desired, connect 10BaseT cable from media converter C1 to a hubthat connects theTracer SC(s), and connect 10BaseT cable from the hub to another mediaconverter. Continue with steps 7–11.

BACnet Network Communication
BACnet communication must be configured forTracer SCs on the “Identification andCommunications:” section (p. 20) of the Installation page.
• For communication betweenTracer SCs, BACnet/IP addressing is used.
• For communication with unit controllers on a twisted-pair communication link, the BACnetmaster/slave token-passing (MS/TP) protocol is used.
Review your network configurations to determine whether or notTracer SCs are able tocommunicate with each other. Depending on how your network is configured, BBMDs may not berequired. See Figure 46, p. 86 and Figure 47, p. 87 for examples.
BBMDs
BBMDs are required for subnets.To ensure that messages are routed properly through thenetwork, one controller on each subnet must be assigned as the BBMD for that subnet. BBMDs areassigned during configuration of theTracer SC.
A subnet’s local BBMD enables the passing of a BACnet message from one subnet to the next byrepackaging it as a directed message (a message that is intended for specific devices), and thensending it to each remote BBMD on its broadcast distribution table (BDT).The subnet’s local BBMDthen rebroadcasts the message to the devices on its subnet.ATracer SC that is a BBMDs must havea fixed IP address.
Note: If theTracer system includesTracer ES™, even a stand-aloneTracer SC must be a BBMD.
BDTs
BDTs are required for subnets. A broadcast distribution table (BDT) is essential for routingbroadcast messages. It is created duringTracer SC configuration. A BDT contains the IP addressfor each BBMD on the network. An identical BDT must be downloaded to each BBMD on a site.
UDP Port
UDP ports are always required for BACnet/IP, even if there is only one subnet.The User DatagramProtocol (UDP) is an Internet protocol used for BACnet device communication.The UDP portnumber is 47808. If the IT staff wants to use a different address or if multiple addresses are neededfor multiple BACnet networks on a single subnet, obtain them from the IT staff.

6. Enter the IP address of the otherTracer SC into the IP address field.The entries in the BDT tableare BBMDs. If your network requires additional BBMDs, click add BBMD.
Important: Only set up oneTracer SC as a BBMD on a subnet even if multipleTracer SCs resideon the same subnet.
7. Click save and send.
Sharing Data BetweenTwoTracer SCs
After completing the above steps, you will need to create points in theTracer SCs to share databetweenTracer SCs.There are two methods that can be used: the pull method and the pushmethod.
Sharing Data Using the Pull Method
Data is pulled from theTracer SC (SC-1) that has the data, into theTracer SC (SC-2) that requiresthe data.This is done by creating an input point in SC-2 and referencing a point in SC-1.
To set up data transfer using the pull method:
1. At theTracer SC user interface click installation >Tracer SCs from the left navigation menu.TheTracer SCs page opens.
2. Locate and record the device ID; save for a later step Figure 49, p. 89.

BACnet Network Communication
Sharing Data Using the Push Method
Data is pushed from theTracer SC (SC-1) that has the data, to a point on theTracer SC (SC-2) thatrequires the data.This is done by creating an output point on SC-1 and referencing a value pointon SC-2.
By using this method, the output point can be configured to send the data at a rate that is fasterthan the heatbeat interval on the receiving value object.This allows for multiple attempts to bemade at sending the data before the value point enters a fault state.
In theTracer SC that will receive the data:
1. Locate and record the device ID and the point instance number as described in steps 2 through3 in “Sharing Data Using the Pull Method,” p. 88. Save for a later step.
2. At theTracer SC user interface, select points > binary value from the left navigation menu.
3. Click the create point button.
4. Enter the following information in the fields as shown in Figure 53, p. 92.
– Name – Chilled water request (user specified)
– Heartbeat – enable (to detect communication failures)
– Heartbeat Interval – 15 minutes (recommended range is 30 seconds to 12 hours)
Note: The point will enter a fault state if not written to within the heartbeat interval.This valueshould be a multiple of the update interval of the point in the source device (Tracer SC)

Unit Controllers
Quantity of Unit Controllers Supported by theTracer SC
EachTracer SC can support a maximum quantity of 120 unit controllers. Unit controllers installedon aTracer SC can be a combination of BACnet and LonTalk unit controllers.
Notes:
• Three types of product licenses are available for theTracer SC.They are based on the maximumnumber of unit controllers that eachTracer SC supports: 30, 60, or 120.
• BACnet controllers cannot exceed 60 controllers per link or 120 total controllers perTracer SC.
• The number of MP580/581s on a LonTalk link cannot exceed 20, and the total number ofcontrollers cannot exceed 120.
The BACnet Unit Controller Network
Every BACnet device on aTracer building automation system, including unit controllers, must havea BACnet device ID.Trane BACnet unit controllers use MS/TP communication.
Observe the following best practices when installing, replacing, or adding BACnet devices:
• Equally distribute the number devices betweenTracer SC BACnet MS/TP links 1 and 2.
• Sequentially address each BACnet MS/TP link (using the rotary switches), starting at 1, 2, 3, andso forth. Each BACnet MS/TP should start at address 1.
• Do not leave any gaps when setting addresses.
• Minimize unnecessary communication on the links by setting up event-triggeredTGP and slowsample rates.
Note: After you have established communication-link and power wiring for the unit controllers,you can connect theTracerTU service tool to a BACnet unit controller and access any otherBACnet unit controller on the link.
Installing Factory-Programmed BACnet Unit Controllers
Trane recommends installing factory-programmed controllers before field-programmablecontrollers. Factory-programmed BACnet unit controllers currently include theTracer UC400controller configured for VAV.
Note: Follow the wiring procedures given in the BACnet MS/TP Wiring Best Practices(BAS-SVX051-EN).
To install factory-programmed BACnet unit controllers on theTracer SC, follow these steps in order:
1. Mount the unit controller and connect the power supply.
2. Using a small screwdriver, set the rotary switches on the unit controllers.The valid range is 001–127 (000 will prevent BACnet link communication).This setting is used as the BACnet device ID.
3. Using a USB cable, connect theTracerTU service tool to the controller.
4. InTracerTU, on the Controller Settings tab:
• Enter the name (the default is “UC400”).
• In the Protocol section:

The LonTalk Unit Controller Network
Every LonTalk device on aTracer building automation system, including unit controllers, must havea valid network address (domain, subnet, node [DSN]).TheTracer SC does not provide any typeof LonTalk network management function.The Rover™ service tool in Active mode provides thethis function for the LonTalk communication link.
Note: After you have established communication-link and power wiring for the LonTalk unitcontrollers, you can connect the Rover service tool to a LonTalk unit controller and accessany other LonTalk unit controllers on the link.
Installing Factory-Programmed LonTalk unit controllers
Trane recommends installing factory-configured controllers first.
• For MP580/581 controllers configured with a DAC or SCC profile, use the following procedure(preferred method). All programmed points in the MP580 will be available using the factoryinstallation method. It is not necessary to create a template for any configuration of the MP580.
• For MP501 controllers with generic-mode configuration and for all MP503 controllers, refer to“Installing Field-Programmable LonTalk Unit Controllers,” p. 98.
Note: Follow the wiring procedures given in the BACnet MS/TP Wiring Best Practices(BAS-SVX051-EN).
To install factory-programmed LonTalk unit controller on theTracer SC, follow these steps in order:
1. Mount the unit controller and connect the power supply.
2. Connect the communication link wiring to the unit controller.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each unit controller.
4. Connect the communication link wiring to theTracer SC.
5. Connect and launch the Rover service tool.
Note: For information about using Rover, see the latest version of Rover ServiceToolInstallation, Operation, and Programming (EMTX-SVX01).
6. Configure the LonTalk network addresses by using Rover V7 in Active mode to discover thecommunication link.
Active mode discovery automatically sets up the network by assigning a unique DSN addressto all LonTalk unit controllers and theTracer SC system controller. Alternatively, other networkmanagement tools can be used to assign a unique DSN for each LonTalk controller.
Note: TheTracer SC is given a valid DSN during initial power-up; it does not need to be presentwhen configuring the LonTalk network on aTrane domain.
7. To complete the installation on theTracer SC, select the Device Discovery link on the Installation
page of the user interface.The Discover Devices page opens (Figure , p. 98).
Note: TheTracer SC installation procedure will not change the DSN.

3. Review the Map Equipment Keys to Define Objects section (Figure 65).The first two columns,object name and object, refer to point objects for the selected device. Identify the objects thatwill be used by theTracer SC.
Filter analog keys based on device units check box:The purpose of this function is to filter theavailable keys based on the units that the selected point has. For example, if a point in a selecteddevice has units of psi/kPa, the system will only show keys with the same units.This is only validfor analog properties.
This check box is checked by default and it is not recommended to deselect it. Deselecting thisbox would only be necessary if a device improperly reports a point’s units.
Notes:
• As ofVersion 3.0,Tracer SC automatically maps any points whose name exactly matchesTracerSC keys. For analog points, the units/dimensionality must also be compatible. Standard pointnames are used in theTGP2 programming library, and can also be found in Table 10, p. 132 andin the UC400/UC600 programming best practices guide (BAS-SVP06C-EN).
• Not every point in a unit controller needs to be used by theTracer SC.
