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. 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 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. (See the TracerUC400 Controller Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement
(PICS) [BAS-PRG007-EN] for related information.
BAS-SVX20F-EN 15
Installation; Wiring
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 in Table 3).
• The first three digits are determined by the address rotary dials on the Tracer SC system
controller.
• The fourth digit is determined by the link number to which the UC400 controller is attached.
• The last three digits are determined by the rotary address dials on the UC400 controller.
Note: The BACnet Device ID is displayed as the Software Device ID on the Tracer TU Controller
Settings Page in the Protocol group.

Connection Wiring
BACnet MS/TP link wiring must be field-supplied and installed in compliance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes. The wire must be low-capacitance, 18-gauge, stranded, tinned-
copper, shielded, twisted-pair. Figure 8, p. 17 shows an example of BACnet link wiring with
multiple UC400 controllers.

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.
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 24 Vac 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 UC400 outputs
• Damage to the transformer or a blown transformer fuse
Transformer Recommendations
The UC400 controller can be powered with 24 Vac or 24 Vdc. You must use a 24 Vac power supply
for proper operation of the binary inputs, which require 24 Vac detection, and also to use the spare
24 Vac outputs to power relays and TRIACS.
• AC transformer requirements: UL listed, Class 2 power transformer, 24 Vac ±15%, device max
load 24 VA, BCI application 6 VA. The transformer must be sized to provide adequate power to
the controller (21 VA) and outputs (maximum of 10A per relay output and 0.5A per TRIAC
output). (See the power budget table under “Calculating power consumption,” p. 24 and binary
output requirements in “UC400 controller device connections,” p. 5.)
• DC power supply requirements: UL listed, Class 2 power supply, 24 Vdc ±15%, device max load
420 mA, BCI application 90 mA.
• CE-compliant installations: The transformer must be CE marked and SELV compliant per IEC
standards.
18 BAS-SVX20F-EN
Installation; Wiring
Wiring Requirements
To ensure proper operation of the UC400 controller, install the power supply circuit in accordance
with the following guidelines:
• The controller must receive AC power from a dedicated power circuit; failure to comply may
cause the controller to malfunction.
• 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.
• 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.
• 18 AWG (0.823 mm2) copper wire is recommended for the circuit between the transformer and
the controller.

Power On Check
1. Verify that the 24 Vac 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:
a. The power LED lights red for 1 second.
b. The power LED lights green.
• If the sequence completes as described, the controller is properly booted and ready for the
application code. See “Task 1: Load Application Code on a Blank UC400,” p. 37.
• If the power LED flashes red, a fault condition exists. See “LED Descriptions and Activities
with Troubleshooting Tips,” p. 34. If there are other problems after powering, see
“Commissioning and Troubleshooting in Powered State,” p. 43
Basic checks
For devices with input/output types listed below, verify their basic functionality:
• Binary inputs: check that they are opening and closing. Also check for 24 Vac if they provide their
own power. With a Trane-provided 24 Vac, check to make sure it is dry contact and working.
• Thermistors: check for 10K using a digital multimeter (DMM).
• Thumb wheels: verify mechanical operation.
• Binary outputs: check for any dead shorts.
• Analog outputs: check that no A/C voltage is present and that the load has no 24 Vac across it
or 120 Vac.

Configuration and Maintenance
This section briefly outlines the tasks you need to perform to configure and maintain a UC400 using
the Tracer TU service tool.
Important: Because the UC400 is a self-serviceable unit, this device is not intended to be
disassembled by the user for maintenance.
Prerequisites
This manual was written with the assumption that you have basic knowledge using the Tracer TU
service tool. Basic Tracer TU operations, such as connecting to a controller directly using a USB
cable or connecting indirectly using Tracer SC pass-through and starting a Tracer TU session are
explained in the Tracer TU Getting Started Guide (TTU-SVN02) (for users outside of Trane). It is
included on the Tracer TU installation CD. The Guide (TTU-SVN01) is also available to Trane
personnel on the Trane portal. In addition, you can refer to the Tracer TU Connection Help, which
you can access from the Help button on the Startup Task Panel that appears when Tracer TU is
started. (See “Other Resources,” p. 53 for additional information available in related documents.)

2. Click OK.
To load or upgrade the firmware, follow the procedure in “Upgrading Controller Firmware” under
the “Managing Configurations, Firmware, and Programs” book of the TOC as shown here:

Configuration and Maintenance
Then read “Point Configuration Overview” (under the “Configuring and Managing Points” book
in the TOC) carefully for an explanation of your configuration options. Also read the linked topics
relevant to the approach you want to take.

screens (Equipment Utility).
Note: You will supply the necessary TGP2 programs after you commission the hard-wired points.
(See Task 7).

Commissioning and Troubleshooting in Powered State
This section provides illustrations and methods about how to check the UC400 points after making
connection and applying power (indicated in each illustration by the terminal connector and UC400
label). The step numbers or method numbers in each illustration correspond to the information in
each table. (See Table 2, p. 5 for a list of device connections.)
To test inputs/outputs requires the following equipment:
• Digital multimeter (DMM)
• Small flat-tip screwdriver
Note: The Out of Service and Override features in Tracer TU can be used to simulate operation for
testing the input/output interaction. By placing a point out of service or overriding at the
priority required for control, the user can enter a value for the point sufficient to trigger a
reaction at the output based on the TGP2 logic controlling the output.

Commissioning and Troubleshooting in Powered State
Open-collector based binary sensors use a bipolar junction transistor (BJT; a three-terminal device in which
emitter-to-collector current is controlled by base current) as the switching device in place of a relay. The term, open
collector, refers to the collector connection on the transistor itself. Open-collector circuits are used for their low
fatigue rate and quick response relative to relay-based outputs.
The circuit within the pulse meter is completed when adding a pull-up resistance and reference voltage. On the
UC400, both universal input (UI) and analog output (AO) circuits add the necessary resistance and voltage without
external parts.
Note: The reference voltage must always be DC.
The voltage across the pulse meter terminals will bounce between Vsat (saturation voltage) of the transistor in the
pulse meter and the Vref (reference voltage) provided by the UI or AO circuits of the UC400. Most bipolar transistors
have a Vsat of less than 0.2 Vdc.
The DMM sampling rate may be too slow to measure pulse meter output transitions.
Note: Check the specifications of the DMM being used. It may be necessary to use an oscilloscope to measure
the transition voltages.
