Chapter 1
Overview
The Tracker building automation system (BAS) is an energy management
system for small- to medium-size buildings. The Tracker BAS controls
heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. It consists
of a Tracker controller (Figure 1) and an optional PC workstation.
The Tracker BAS can be operated by using either a Tracker controller or a
PC workstation that is running Tracker PC Workstation software. A
visual interface enables an operator to set up and change HVAC
operating parameters and to collect and display building information.
The Tracker PC Workstation software allows a PC to be connected to the
Tracker controller directly with a prescribed adapter and cable, locally
over a standard Ethernet local area network (LAN) connection, or
remotely with a modem and standard phone line.
The Tracker BAS supports Comm5 communications architecture, which
is the Trane implementation of LonTalk
(Figure 2 on page 2 and Figure 3 on page 3) that includes HVAC and
other comfort-related equipment, such as Trane VariTrac zoning systems;
zoning controls; unit control modules (UCMs), which control and monitor
other HVAC equipment; Tracer LCI-V (LonTalk
interfaces for Voyager rooftop controls); Tracer LCI-R (LonTalk
communication interfaces for ReliaTel rooftop controls); external input/
output (I/O) devices, which help to monitor and control specific areas or
devices; and miscellaneous equipment such as sensors, lights, and fans.

Main module
The main module (Figure 6) is a housing that contains the main logic
board and the Ethernet board. The main module can be “hot swapped”: it
can be removed and installed without removing power from the
termination module. When the main module is installed onto a powered
termination module, it receives power and begins to operate
automatically.
The main logic board provides an Ethernet LAN port, a PC interface port,
and a modem port. It provides an internal interface to termination
module I/O. It also provides Comm5 communication, 24 VAC power,
alarm, and communication indicators. It communicates and exchanges
data with the devices wired to the termination module. It also
communicates with the display module.
The Ethernet board provides two LED indicators. One shows that an
Ethernet link is detected; the other shows that there is serial traffic
between the Ethernet board and the main logic board.

Mount the termination module
After selecting a suitable location for the Tracker controller, mount the
termination module. Mounting consists of securing the termination
module to a wall or a 2 in. × 4 in. recessed conduit box (mounted vertically
or horizontally) or a 4 in. × 4 in. recessed conduit box (several European
electrical box sizes are also usable) and installing electrical conduit
(optional). Figure 12 shows the conduit access and mounting holes on the
termination module.
