Installation of New Units
1. Follow all instruction for installation of classroom unit ventilators as detailed in UV­IOM-1 (Installation Operation Maintenance manual).
2. Disconnect power or disable the circuit breaker to unit.
3. Run communication link wire when required. (See wiring diagram in the unit).
4. Install zone sensor when required. (See wiring diagram in the unit and zone sensor submittals).
5. Reapply power.
6. Check for GREEN Status LED operation to ensure power has been made to the TracerTM ZN.520 unit controller.
Start-up Procedures
7. Check for YELLOW Comm LED operation to help ensure com­munication has been made to the Tracer ZN.520 unit control­ler when required.
Peel IDENTIFICATION TAG from unit and place in the Appendix of this document, or on building plans for future location use. The actual room location on the tag may be hand written.
Power Up Sequence
Manual output test can be initiated at any time in the power up se­quence or during normal opera­tion.
When 24 VAC power is initially ap­plied to the controller, the follow­ing sequence occurs:
1. Green Status LED turns on.
2. All outputs are controlled Off.
3. The controller reads input val­ues to determine initial values.
4. Standalone control is assumed unless occupancy data is com­municated.
5. Random start timer expires (5 to 30 seconds, random).
Start-up Procedures
6. Power-up control Wait feature is applied. When power up control Wait is enabled, the controller waits 120 seconds to allow ample time for commu­nicated control data to arrive. If, after 120 seconds, the con­troller does not receive a com­municated occupancy request, the unit assumes standalone operation.
7. All modulating valves and damper calibrate closed, face and bypass damper calibrate to bypass (when present).
8. Normal operation begins after 290 (potentially) seconds have passed.
Note: Manual output test can be initiated at any time .

Tracer® ZN.520 Overview
The Trane® Tracer® ZN.520 con­troller is a factory-installed and commissioned, direct-digital controller (DDC) offering for classroom unit ventilator sys­tems. (See Figure 1: “Tracer ZN.520 Control Board”) The Trac­er ZN.520 can also be applied to other Trane® interoperable HVAC equipment, including the fan coil and blower coil products. (For more information see, Table 1:
Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Controller features and coil availability, on page 8 for more information.) For
more information regarding the application of the Tracer ZN.520 to other Trane products, contact the appropriate local Trane sales office.
Trane offers a complete solution to space comfort control with the flexibility of Integrated Comfort System (ICS) and stand-alone control packages. The ICS control package combines HVAC equip­ment and building management into one environmental comfort system.
Integrating the Tracer ZN.520 on classroom unit ventilators, and tying them to a Tracer Summit® system will provide a complete building management system. The stand-alone control package offers the features and function­ality of the direct digital control without a front-end building au­tomation system, while providing future considerations for ICS.
Equipment problems can often be diagnosed on each unit without having to access the unit compo­nets. These diagnostics can be re­ceived remotely via a modem with a Tracer Summit building automa­tion system, thus reducing the number of actual on-site service calls; through the Rover® service tool connected to a communica­tion jack located inside the Trace zone sensor; or connected to the unit.
General Information
Figure 1: Tracer ZN.520 Control Board
The Tracer ZN.520 is factory­mounted, tested, wired, config­ured and commissioned for the se­lected application.
The Tracer ZN.520 configuration has flexible point and product con­figurations. For example, with point configuration, a specific bi­nary point can be configured to ac­cept input from either a time clock or some type of generic device.

Controller Features
Each Tracer ZN.520 unit controller circuit board is equipped with en­hancements to help facilitate ser­vice, testing, and diagnosis.
Each board has
q Manual test button, q Status LED, q Communication status LED, q Service button, q Quick terminal connectors, and q Easy to read screen printing.
(See Figure 1: “Tracer ZN.520 Control Board”).
Service
The Trane Tracer ZN.520 unit con­troller is serviced using Rover®, the ICS software service too. Rover is designed to support the Tracer ZN.520 unit controller on the class­room unit ventilator.
For “remote” access to the com­municating units, the zone sensors offered with the Tracer ZN.520 have a telephone style (RJ-11) con­nector allowing field connection between Rover and the zone sen­sor; however, the RJ-11 connector must be connected to the terminals TB2-5 and TB2-6 on the Tracer ZN.520 unit controller. (See Figure
3: “Rover service tool connected to the RJ-11 communication jack in a zone sensor”)
The zone sensor may also be used when trying to locate a unit. By pressing the O N button on the zone sensor for 5 seconds or using the “wink” command in Rover, the cir­cuit board receives the signal caus­ing the Communication LED to “wink”. Winking allows visual identifier on the board for service technicians.
The Tracer ZN.520 also includes features such as a test output to manually test all of the end devices and color coded wires (i.e. red for heating valves and blue for cooling valves) to aid in the troubleshoot­ing process.(See “Manual Output
Test” on page48, for more infor­mation.)

Typical Components
A typical classroom unit ventilator system with a DDC package con­sists of the following physical com­ponents, in addition to the mechanical equipment:
q Tracer ZN.520—contains the
sensor input circuits, service adjustments, microprocessor control electronics, and communications hardware.
10 UV-SVP01A-EN
Power is supplied by a separately mounted 24 VAC\90 VA transformer.
q Sensor Modules—a variety of
analog sensors that provide temperature and optional humidity sensing and CO2 sensor; and an operator interface to the Tracer ZN.520 for operating modes, status, and temperature setpoints.
q Standard End Devices—a
variety of devices that help to gather information, control capacity, and provide ventilation are used by the Tracer ZN.520 in its control algorithm to condition the space to the desired temperature and relative humidity level. (See “Standard
End Devices ” on page13, for more information.)
Communication Configurations
Note: The Tracer ZN.520 is a configured controller. It will not operate without a valid downloaded configuration file.
The Tracer ZN.520 controller sup­ports ICS and peer-to-peer com­munications as well as stand­alone operation. A number of con­trol features may be configured at the factory or by using the Rover service tool. (See “Configuration”
on page32, for more information.)
Integrated Comfort System
Note: The Tracer ZN.520 controller may only be used with Tracer Summit version
11.0 or greater with a Comm5 communications card.
Classroom unit ventilators can op­erate as part of a large building au­tomation system controlled by Tracer Summit. The Tracer ZN.520 is linked directly to the Tracer Summit via a twisted pair commu­nication wire. Each Tracer Summit building automation system can
connect to a maximum of 120 Tracer ZN.520 controllers.
Figure 4: Communications link wire
The ICS system allows for com­plete communication with the classroom unit ventilators via Tracer ZN.520 unit controller. All points connected to the Tracer ZN.520 may be observed from the Tracer Summit front-end control­ler. The Tracer Summit can also initiate an alarm on a loss of per­formance or equipment malfunc­tions.
The ICS system also allows all of the classroom unit ventilators to share information without the presence of hardwired sensors at each unit. Some typical shared points include outside air temper­ature, entering water temperature, and occupancy schedules.
Peer-to-Peer Communications
On a peer-to-peer communication system, multiple Tracer ZN.520 controllers may share data, via a twisted pair communication wire, without the need for a Tracer Sum­mit system. (See Figure 5: “Peer-
to-peer communication connec­tions”)
Peer-to-peer communications al­lows features such as master/slave operation, in which multiple units operate off of a single zone sensor. This is typically seen in large spac­es requiring multiple units.
The Rover service tool is required to set up peer-to-peer communica­tions.
Figure 5: Peer-to-peer communication connections
UV-SVP01A-EN 11
Communication Configurations
Stand-Alone
In a stand-alone configuration, commands for operation are deter­mined based on input from the zone sensor, humidity sensor, and factory- or field-mounted time­clock.(See Figure 6: “Typical class-
room unit ventilator installation ”)
q The timeclock is wired to the
Tracer ZN.520 to index the unit between occupied and unoccupied modes.
q A unit-mounted, analog,
outside-air temperature sensor is used to initiate the dry bulb economizer and freeze avoidance routines.
q On changeover units, a unit-
mounted, analog, entering water temperature sensor is used to automatically control the system in the heat/cool mode.
These sensors are required for proper system operation and are provided as standard on stand­alone units.

Communication Interface
Important! To help ensure optimal performance of the Rover service tool, please use the latest version. To obtain the latest version contact your local Trane sales represent­tative or service technician.
Note: Refer to the Tracer system manuals for more information on communica­tions.
The Tracer ZN.520 communicates via Comm5 (LonTalk) to a building management system, the Rover service tool, and other unit control­lers on the communications link. Each Tracer ZN.520 requires a unique address for the system to operate properly. Every Tracer ZN.520 has this address (Neuron ID) embedded in the microproces­sor, which eliminates the need for field-addressing of the units. Each unit also ships from the factory with a unit identification tag. (See
“Location Identifier ” on page38, for more information.)
Building automation system
Trane offers a state-of the art front­end building automation system designed to coordinate and moni­tor Trane equipment and control­lers: Tracer Summit.
The Tracer Summit system allows the user to monitor and/or change Tracer ZN.520:
q status, parameters, sensor data,
diagnostics, and internal variables; and
q setpoints, operating modes,
and outputs.
Service tool
Trane also offers a service tool to work in conjunction with the Tracer Summit system or with peer-to­peer and stand-alone systems: the Rover service tool.
Communication to the Tracer ZN.520, or multiple controllers, can also be accomplished by using the ICS software service tool.
A personal computer running Rov­er may be directly connected to a standalone Tracer ZN.520; con­nected to the communications jack in the Trane zone sensor; or con­nected to a communicating unit’s Tracer ZN.520 unit controller, to ac­cess all of the units on a communi­cating link.
Rover allows the user to interface with the Tracer ZN.520, but will not allow any advanced control (e.g. equipment scheduling or trend­ing). To purchase a copy of the ICS software service tool, contact the BAS department at your local Trane dealer.
Interoperability
Trane has lead the industry with BACnet interoperability and Trane is now expanding the realm of in­teroperable solutions by offering LonMark certified unit controllers. The Tracer ZN.520 controller con­forms to the LonMark Space Com­fort Controller profile. (See
“Appendix—Data Lists” on page64, for more information.)
This allows the ZN.520 to be used as a unit controller on other control systems that support LonTalk and the SCC profile. Now building own­ers have more choices and design engineers have more flexibility to meet the challenges of building au­tomation.

Mounting
The Tracer ZN.520 circuit board is mounted in the left-hand end pock­et for all classroom unit ventilator configurations. The sheet metal mounting plate has raised emboss­es to accept the mounting feet on the circuit board. (See Figure 8:
“Classroom unit ventilator control box with close-up of horseshoe embosses and circuit board mounting feet. ”) This design al-
lows the Tracer ZN.520 controller to be secured with a minimal num­ber of sheet metal screws.
Installation and Wiring
Figure 8: Classroom unit ventilator control box with close-up of horseshoe embosses and circuit board mounting feet.
22 UV-SVP01A-EN
Installation and Wiring
The mounting position on the ver­tical classroom unit ventilator
configuration allows complete ac­cess to the Tracer ZN.520 by re­moving the front panel. (See
Figure 9: “Vertical classroom unit ventilator end pocket”) The
mounting plate swings out of the way with the removal of a single screw to allow access to the com­ponents behind the control board.
The mounting plate on the hori-
zontal classroom unit ventila­tor configuration is designed to
slide out with the removal of a sin­gle screw for complete access to the Tracer ZN.520. (See Figure 10:
“Horizontal classroom unit venti­lator end pocket”) The location of
the control board on this unit con­figuration allows complete access to the other components in the end pocket when the front panel is removed.
For additional convenience, quick connects and modular wire har­nesses are used on the control board and mounting plate. (See
Figure 11: “Quick connects to con­trol board in the classroom unit ventilator”) These quick connects
help facilitate ease of wiring devic­es (e.g., zone sensor) to the control board, and helps add accessibility to major components.

WARNING
Warning! Disconnect all elec­trical power before servicing unit to prevent injury or death due to electrical shock. Use copper conductors only. The use of aluminum or other incorrect types of wire may result in overheating and equipment damage.
!
CAUTION
Caution: To prevent damage
to the unit ventilator, refer to the diagram provided on the inside of the unit's access panel for specific wiring infor-
mation. All controls are wired at the factory. Single point power, zone sensor, and communication wiring is to be installed by the contractor.
Important! All wiring must comply with state, local, and federal guidelines. Contact the appropriate local agency for furthur information.
Important! Wires for temperature sensors, communication lines, 24 VAC, and contact closure sensing inputs should not be bundled with or run near high voltage wiring.
q Power wiring must be
separated from the Tracer ZN.520 and all low voltage wires. External input wires should be run in separate conduits from high voltage wires.
q Wires connected to pin headers
should be formed and routed so as to cause minimum strain on the Tracer ZN.520 connector.
q A minimum of 1.5" clearance
(from the pin centerline) for wires up to 16 AWG is recommended for bending and forming wires.
q All sensor and input circuits are
at or near ground potential. Do not connect any sensor or input circuit to an external ground connection.
q A close-coupled ground
connection is required for the Tracer ZN.520. T

Installation and Wiring
Installing the Wall­Mounted Zone Sensor (Optional)
Zone sensor location is an impor­tant element of effective room control and comfort.
The best sensor location is typical­ly on a wall, remote from the HVAC unit. Readings at this loca­tion assure that the desired set­point is achieved across the space, not just near the unit itself.
Note: It may be necessary to subdivide the zone with multiple units to ensure adequate control and comfort throughout the space.
The following are typical areas where the zone sensor should NOT be mounted:
q Near drafts or “dead spots”
(e.g., behind doors or corners);
q Near hot or cold air ducts;
q Near radiant heat (e.g., heat
emitted from appliances or the sun);
q Near concealed pipes or
chimneys;
q On outside walls or other non-
conditioned surfaces; or
q In air flows from adjacent
zones or other units.
Figure 13: Proper zone sensor placement
Note: All zone sensor wiring will be done in the factory unless zone sensor options are selected to be wall mounted.
When a unit-mounted speed switch is selected with a wall­mounted zone sensor, the contrac­tor must disconnect the cooling setpoint on the unit mounted sen­sor if the wall mounted cooling setpoint is used. The zone signal will be cut at the factory. The unit­mounted speed switch cannot be used as a zone sensor.
THe communications link is not connected in the factory. Commu­nications should be wired to the wall-mounted sensor.

Humidity and CO2 Sensors
Humidity and CO2 sensors should be mounted in a similar location as the zone sensor.

Unit Identification Tag
The unit identification tag is factory mounted and provided for easy identification of an installed unit. It contains model number, tagging, and location information.
The top portion of the unit identifi­cation tag remains permanently af­fixed to the unit for identification purposes. The bottom portion of the tag provides pertinent informa­tion that is removable to be placed on building plans or in “ Appen­dix—Location Identifier” on page68. This provides identifica­tion history about the unit’s loca­tion for quick reference.
These tags provide information about
q unit serial number; q NID (neuron identification
number)—The NID is similar to the serial number of the unit but is specific to the identification of the Tracer ZN.520 unit controller circuit board; and
q unit location—The location
identification is a customer defined, clear English description, of the unit’s physical location. This is a 27 character description, including spaces, of the location. For example, if the location identification for a unit is “Conference Room 101”, the ZN.520, Rover (the Trane Comm 5 service tool), and Tracer Summit, will recognize this clear English description.
If location identification is not de­fined, it will default to the unit seri­al number. This unit identification tag provides some information so the user has multiple references to the unit. The blank location is pro­vided for field modification in case the unit is moved from the initial location.

Winking
Winking a device causes the green status LED on the device selected to blink at a rate of twice per sec­ond for approximately 10 seconds. This feature is useful when a dis­crepancy in device location exists. As part of the troubleshooting pro­cess, one person can WINK the de­vice while another can observe the blinking and verify the device’s physical location.
Important! If the status LED on the ZN.520 does not blink, the device may not be communicating or it may not be the device you selected according to the stored address.
A Tracer ZN.520 unit controller may be set to wink by

Unit Operation
Power-Up
When 24 VAC is initially applied to the controller, the following se­quence of events occurs:
q Green status LED turns ON . q All outputs are controlled OFF. q The controller reads input
values to determine initial values.
q Random-start timer expires (5
to 30 seconds).
q When POWER-UP CONTROL WAIT
is enabled, the controller waits 0-120 seconds (depending on configuration) to allow ample time for communicated control data to input. If the controller does not receive communi­cated information, standalone control is assumed.
q All modulating valves and
dampers calibrate closed.
q NORMAL operation begins.
Occupancy
The valid occupancy modes for the Tracer ZN.520 controller are:
q OCC UPIED - Normal operating
mode for occupied spaces or daytime operation.
q UNOCCUPIED - Normal
operating mode for unoccupied spaces or nighttime operation.
q OCC UPIED STANDBY - Mode
used to reduce the heating and cooling demands, while providing ventilation, during the occupied hours when the space is vacant or unoccupied.
q OCC UPIED BYPASS -Used to
temporarily place the unit into the occupied operation.
The occupancy mode can be hard­wired to the controller via the oc­cupancy binary input or communicated to the controller.
OCC UPIED mode
When the controller is in the OC CU-
PIED mode, the unit attempts to
maintain the space temperature at the active occupied heating or cooling setpoint.
OCC UPIED mode is the default
mode of the Tracer ZN.520 control­ler.
UNOCCUPIE D mode
When the controller is in the UN-
OCC UPIED mode, the unit attempts
to maintain space temperature at the stored unoccupied heating or cooling setpoint (i.e., config­urable through Tracer Summit or the Rover service tool) regardless of the presence of a hardwired or communicated setpoint. When the space temperature exceeds the stored unoccupied setpoint, the controller brings on 100% of the primary heating or cooling ca­pacity.
The UNOCC UPIED mode can be ini­tiated through a hardwired signal to the occupancy binary input or by a communicated request.
OCC UPIED STANDBY mode
The OC CUPIED STANDBY mode al­lows the unit to operate at a heat­ing or cooling setpoint between the occupied and unoccupied set­points to help maintain the envi­ronment while decreasing energy consumption.
This mode decreases the ventila­tion for heating or cooling during brief periods of vacancy in the space. Unit operation in this mode is similar to the occupied mode ex­cept for the different heating and cooling setpoints and a different outside air damper position.
The OC CUPIED STANDBY mode is initiated only when occupancy is communicated to the Tracer ZN.520 controller and the hard­wired signal to the occupancy in­put is calling for unoccupied operation.
OCC UPIED BYPASS mode
The OCCUPIED BY PASS mode is used to transition the unit from the
UNOCCUPIED mode to the OCC U- PIE D mode for a period of time
from 0 to 4 hours (configurable through Rover. Default=RUN). The controller can be placed in OC CU-
PIE D BYPASS mode by either com-
municating an occupancy request of BYPASS or by using the TIMED
OVE RRIDE (i.e., ON) button on the
Trane zone sensor.
ON and CANCEL Buttons
Some Trane zone sensors have ON and CANCEL buttons for timed over- ride operation. Pressing the ON button on the zone sensor when the unit is in the UNOCC UPIED mode initiates the OCC UPIED BY-
PASS mode and initializes the by-
pass timer. The CANCEL button is used to send the unit back into UN-
OCC UPIED mode before the bypass
timer has expired. The ON button may also be used
for the unit identification or the “WINK” feature. (See “Winking” on page38.for more information.) When the Tracer ZN.520 controller is connected to a Tracer Summit system or the Rover service tool, the ON button may be used in place of the service pin for easy unit identification.
Heating And Cooling Changeover Logic
The Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Control­ler can receive communicated re­quests for heating or cooling operation. The communicated variable nviApplicMode is used to communicate the requests for the controller's operating mode based on the following values:
0 = Auto (mode determined by
controller)
1 = Heat (uses heating
setpoints) 2 = Morning Warm-up 3 = Cool (uses cooling
setpoints)
UV-SVP01A-EN 39
Unit Operation
4 = Night Purge (air
changeover) not supported
5 = Pre-cool (morning cool
down)
6 = Off (no unit operation
allowed) 7 = Test (special test mode) 8 = Emergency Heat not
supported
9 = Fan Only (no heating or
cooling allowed)
All other enumerations will be in­terpreted as Auto.
As the controller automatically de­termines its heating or cooling mode, it changes from cool to heat or from heat to cool, while the error (integrated over time between the active setpoint and the space tem-
perature) is (900 °Fh Sec). Integra- tion only begins once the heating and cooling capacity is equal to 0% or the discharge air temperature is being limited by the discharge air temperature control limits.(See
Figure 17: “Heat/Cool Changeover logic”).
Figure 17: Heat/Cool Changeover logic
If the measured space temperature is 69 °F and the active cooling set­point is 72 °F, the error between the space temperature and the set­point is three degrees. If the same error exists for one minute (60 sec­onds), the integration term is (3 °Fh60 Sec) or (180 °Fh Sec).
The Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Control­ler changes from heating to cool­ing and cooling to heating when the integration term exceeds (900 °FhSec). Along with satisfy­ing the integration for heating and cooling changeover, the measured space temperature must fall out­side the setpoint range. This means the space temperature must be greater than the active
40 UV-SVP01A-EN
cooling setpoint or lower than the active heating setpoint.
Example: If the cooling setpoint is 75°F and the heating setpoint 70°F, any space temperature greater than 75°F or less than 70°F is outside the setpoint range.
Once the integration term is satis­fied and the space temperature is outside the setpoint range, the controller changes modes. Howev­er, before the unit's heating or cooling capacity ramps up, the controller checks to make sure it is capable of heating or cooling.
For some units, heating and cool­ing capability exists with local re­sources such as electric heat or
compressors. For these units, cen­tral heating or cooling plan opera­tion is not required for heating or cooling because they are capable of providing their own local heat­ing or cooling.
For 2-pipe changeover and 4-pipe changeover units with hydronic ca­pacity, heating and cooling is pro­vided through hydronic. For those hydronic, central heating or cool­ing plant operation is required for the unit to deliver heating or cool­ing. To determine whether the cen­tral plant is providing the desired water temperature, an entering water temperature sensor (either hardwired or communicated) must be present.
Unit Operation
The entering water must be five degrees or more above the space temperature to allow hydronic heating, and five degrees or more below the space temperature to al­low hydronic cooling.
If the desired water temperature is available, the unit begins normal heating and cooling operation. If the measured entering water tem­perature is not adequate for the desired heating or cooling, the controller begins the entering wa­ter temperature sampling logic.
The Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Control­ler operates the modulating valves and dampers based on a heating or cooling capacity calculated by the control algorithm. The control algorithm calculates the heating or cooling capacity based on the measured space temperature, the active setpoint and the discharge air temperature. When the mea­sured space temperature is within the active heating and cooling set­points, the heating and cooling ca­pacity approaches zero.
Cooling Operation
During the C OOLING mode, the Tracer ZN.520 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:
q Occupied cooling setpoint q Occupied standby cooling
setpoint q 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 (0-100%). The outputs are con­trolled based on the unit configu­ration and the requested cooling capacity.
Heating Operation
During the H EATING mode, the Tracer ZN.520 controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the active heating setpoint. Based on the controller’s occupan­cy mode, the active heating set­point is one of the following:
q Occupied heating setpoint q Occupied standby heating
setpoint q Unoccupied heating setpoint 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 (0-100%). The outputs are con­trolled based on the unit configu­ration and the requested heating capacity.
Fan Operation
For multiple fan speed applica­tions, the Tracer ZN.520 controller allows separate default fan speeds to be configured for heating and cooling modes. When the fan mode switch is in the AUTO posi­tion or no hardwired input exists, the fan operates at the configured default fan speed (i.e, HIGH).
The Tracer ZN.520 controller also allows the default fan speed to be configured as AU TO. When the fan speed switch is in the AUTO posi­tion and the default fan speed is configured as AU TO, the unit may change fan speeds based on the requested heating or cooling ca­pacity. In this mode, the unit fan will operate at LOW speed until the requested capacity requires HIGH fan speed operation to maintain space comfort.
The fan mode request can be ei­ther hardwired or communicated to the Tracer ZN.520 controller. When both are present, the com­municated request has priority over the hardwired input. Addi­tional flexibility in the controller al-
lows the fan speed switch to be disabled. When this occurs, the unit will operate at the default fan speed unless a communicated re­quest is present.
During OCCUPIE D, OCCUPIED
STANDBY , and OCCUPIED BYPASS
modes, the fan will normally oper­ate continuously at the appropri­ate fan speed. The fan will only be
O FF in these modes when the MAN-
UAL OUTPUT TEST has been initiat-
ed, a latching diagnostic is present, or the communicated or hardwired fan speed is OFF. (See
“Manual Output Test” on page48.for more information.)
During the UNOCCUPIED mode, the unit fan is controlled OFF. When ca- pacity is required to maintain the unoccupied heating or cooling set­point, the unit fan is controlled to high speed regardless of a hard­wired or communicated fan speed.

Temperature Error
Fan Off Delay
When a heating output is con­trolled off, the Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit 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
On a transition from off to any oth­er fan speed, the Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Controller automatically starts the fan on high speed and runs the fan at high speed for 0.5
UV-SVP01A-EN 41
Unit Operation
seconds. This provides the ample torque required to start all fan mo­tors from the off position.
Exhaust fan/damper operation
This binary point is a shared point with medium fan speed. For this point to be used for exhaust con­trol, the controller must be config­ured for a 1- or 2-speed fan. The exhaust fan/damper is coordinated with the unit fan and outdoor damper operation. The exhaust output is energized only when the unit fan is operating and the out­door damper position is greater than or equal to the configurable exhaust enable point. The exhaust fan output is disabled when the outdoor air damper position drops 10% below the exhaust enable point. If the enable point is less than 10%, the unit turns on at the enable point and off at 0.
Valve Operation
Modulating Valves
The Tracer ZN.520 controller sup­ports one or two modulating valves for hydronic heating and cooling operation. The main valve/ coil is used for cooling only, heat/ cool changeover (2-pipe applica­tions), or cooling (4-pipe applica­tions). The auxiliary valve/coil provides heating in 4-pipe and heating only applications.
At power-up, the Tracer ZN.520 controller drives the modulating valves to the closed position. The controller calibrates to the full closed position by overdriving the actuator 135%. Whenever the con­troller requests a valve position of zero or 100%, the controller over­drives the actuator 135% regard­less of the current valve position.
Face-and-Bypass Isolation Valves
Face-and-bypass units may use isolation valves to prevent unwant­ed water flow in the coil. This elim­inates problems such as radiant heat or excessive condensate in 2­pipe systems.
In 4-pipe applications, the isolation valves are used to prevent conflict­ing capacities within the unit.
Face-and-Bypass Damper Operation
Note: The Face-and-bypass actuator is located in the right­hand end pocket of the classroom unit ventilator.
The Tracer ZN.520 controller actu­ates a face-and- bypass damper to modulate a percentage of air to the face of the coil to maintain space comfort. When a requested capaci­ty is present, the unit modulates the damper to allow more air to the face of the coil. An averaging sen­sor is used on the discharge air to provide accurate capacity control.
Figure 18: Horizontal unit with face-and-bypass damper option.
42 UV-SVP01A-EN
Unit Operation
Figure 19: Vertical unit with face-and­bypass damper operations
Upon power-up, the controller cal­ibrates the face-and-bypass damp­er to the full bypass position by overdriving the damper actuator. During normal operation, whenev­er the Tracer ZN.520 controller generates a face-and-bypass damper position request of zero or 100%, the unit calibrates the actu­ator by overdriving the damper ac­tuator 135%.
Entering Water Temperature Sampling
Units with 4-pipe changeover and 2-pipe changeover require an en­tering water temperature to deter­mine if the appropriate water temperature is present for the re­quested mode (heating or cool­ing). This temperature may be communicated in an ICS system or hardwired to the Tracer ZN.520
controller for standalone applica­tions.
When a unit uses 2-way modulat­ing valves, it is possible for the wa­ter near the entering water temperature sensor to migrate to­wards ambient temperature. The Tracer ZN.520 controller has a wa­ter sampling feature for these ap­plications. When the sensed water temperature is not sufficient for the requested heat/cool mode (5°F above the zone temperature for heating or 5°F below the zone temperature for cooling), the con­troller drives the valve fully open. The controller then monitors the water temperature until the appro­priate temperature is sensed or until the three minute time limit expires. If the water temperature is acceptable for the requested ca­pacity, the unit continues normal operation. If the three minute tim­er expires and the water tempera­ture is still unsuitable, the unit closes the valve and waits one hour before invoking the sampling feature again.

Modulating Outdoor Air Operation
The Tracer ZN.520 controller oper­ates a modulating (3-wire floating) outdoor air damper actuator ac­cording to the effective occupan­cy, outdoor air temperature, space temperature, effective setpoint, discharge air temperature, and discharge air temperature set-
point. Default minimum damper positions are provided and can be changed for occupied and occu­pied standby modes, or for low speed operation. The controller can also receive a communicated outdoor air damper minimum po­sition from Tracer Summit. A com­municated minimum position from Tracer Summit has priority over all configured setpoints.
During the OC CUPIED mode the outdoor air damper will always be controlled to the effective mini­mum position unless ASHRAE Cy­cle I, ASHRAE Cycle II, or economizing modes are active.

UV-SVP01A-EN 43
Unit Operation
Automatic Outdoor Air Damper Adjustment
The Tracer ZN.520 controller is ca­pable of using different minimum outdoor air damper positions for high and low fan speeds, which are configurable. This allows the venti­lation rate to be maintained when switching between fan speeds.
Note: The typical reduction in airflow between high and low fan speeds is 25%, however, if precise control is desired, an air balancer should be consulted.
Economizer Operation
Note: When there is a request for 0% or 100% actuator position, the actuator will overdrive the actuator 135% to help maintain calibration.
With a valid outdoor air tempera­ture (hardwired or communicated), Tracer ZN.520 uses the modulating economizer damper as the highest priority source of cooling.
The controller initiates the econo­mizer function if the outdoor air temperature is cold enough to be used for free cooling capacity. If the outdoor air temperature is less than the economizer enable set­point (absolute dry bulb), the con­troller modulates the outdoor air damper between the minimum po­sition and 100% to control the amount of cooling capacity. When the outdoor air temperature rises 5°F above the economizer enable setpoint, the outdoor air damper returns to its minimum position and mechanical cooling is initiated.
ASHRAE Cycle I
ASHRAE Cycle I admits 100% out­door air except during the warm up cycle or the unoccupied mode. To set up the Tracer ZN.520 controller for ASHRAE Cycle I conformance, set the occupied outdoor air damp­er minimum position to 100%.
44 UV-SVP01A-EN
ASHRAE Cycle II
The Tracer ZN.520 controller con­forms to ASHRAE Cycle II by allow­ing the modulating outdoor air damper to maintain a minimum position during the occupied mode unless economizing is enabled or the space temperature falls more than 3°F below the effective set­point.
If the space temperature falls more than 2°F below the setpoint, the outdoor air damper will begin to close. When the space temperature hits 3°F below the setpoint, the outdoor air damper is completely closed.
Figure 22: ASHRAE cycle 2
DX Operation
Tracer ZN.520 supports direct ex­pansion (DX) compressor opera­tion for cooling only.
The controller does not allow both the DX compressor and economiz­er to operate at the same time. This prevents problems where the en­tering air temperature is too low for the evaporator coil to operate as designed.
Tracer ZN.520 also includes a fixed minimum on/off time of 3 minutes for compressor operation to pre­vent short cycling of the compres­sor.
Electric Heat Operation
The Tracer ZN.520 controller sup­ports 1 or 2 stages of electric heat control.
To control space temperature, electric heat is cycled to control the discharge air temperature. The rate of cycling is dependent on the load in the space and the temperature of the incoming fresh air.
Baseboard Heat Operation
The Tracer ZN.520 controller can be configured to support one stage of baseboard heat. A 2 position valve or an electric heat contactor will be energized at 2.5°F below the effective heating setpoint. The baseboard heat is de-energized at 1°F below the effective heating setpoint.
The unit will provide heating ca­pacity as required regardless of the presence of baseboard heat. If the unit can not maintain the space temperature, the baseboard heat will come on as a secondary stage.
If baseboard heat is to be used as the primary source of heating, the discharge air high limit should be set to a moderate temperature. This will allow the ventilation air to be tempered and avoid a “drafty” feeling. The baseboard heat will then operate as the heating capaci­ty for the space.
In the UNOCC UPIED mode, the baseboard heat and unit heating capacity are brought on simulta­neously as needed to maintain the unoccupied setpoint.
Exhaust Fan Operation
The exhaust fan is coordinated with the unit fan and outdoor air damper operation. The exhaust fan output is energized only when the unit fan is operating and the out­door air damper position is greater
Unit Operation
than or equal to the configurable exhaust enable setpoint. This is useful for exhaust fans designed to offset the added economizer ventilation.
The exhaust fan is disabled when the outdoor air damper position drops 10% below the exhaust en­able point. If the exhaust fan en­able setpoint is less than 10%, the Tracer ZN.520 controller energizes the exhaust fan at the enable point and disables it when the outdoor air damper closes.
Output Overrides
Manual Output Test
Manual output test allows the bi­nary outputs to be energized in a predefined sequence.(For more in- formation see, Manual Output Test, on page 48 for more informa-
tion.)
Water Valve Override
To enable quicker water balanc­ing, the controller allows a user to specify the desired state of all wa­ter valves. The values supported are:
q Open all valves q Close all valves
The valves in the system will re­main open for two hours or until normal operation is resumed.
The Tracer Summit or the Rover service tool is required to access this feature.
Fan Status
There are two ways to do fan sta­tus monitoring:
1. The status of the fan is reported based on the state of the binary output(s) dedicated to fan control. The fan status is reported as HIG H or LOW whenever the corresponding binary output is directed ON.
The fan status is reported as
OFF when none of the fan out-
puts are directed ON.
2. The Tracer ZN.520 controller has a binary input available for a fan status device (current sensing relay or differential pressure switch) which can provide feedback of fan opera­tion. If the device does not indicate fan operation after 1 minute, a unit shutdown is ini­tiated, and the unit is latched
OFF.
Filter Status/ Maintenance Timer
The unit filter status\maintenance timer is based on the cumulative run hours of the unit fan. The con­troller compares the fan run time against an adjustable fan run hour limit and recommends unit main­tenance as required.
The Rover service tool is used to edit the maintenance required set­point time. Once the setpoint limit is exceeded, the controller gener­ates a MAIN TENANCE REQUIRED infor­mational diagnostic. When the maintenance required setpoint time is set to zero, the controller disables this feature.
You can use the Trace Summit or the Rover service tool to clear the
MAINTENANC E REQUIRED informa-
tional diagnostic. Once the diag­nostic is cleared, the controller resets the fan run time to zero and begins accumulating fan run hours again.
Note: If at any time the unit loses power, the timer is reset to zero.
Other Modes
DEHUMIDIFICATION
Note: If the unit is in the unoccupied mode, the dehumidification routine will not operate
Dehumidification is possible when mechanical cooling is available; the heating capacity is 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 coils simultaneously to dehumidify the space. When de­humidifying, the discharge air temperature is controlled to main­tain the space temperature at the current setpoint.
Economizing is disabled during the dehumidification mode.
Note: While in the dehumidification mode, if there is a call for capacity by the unit, the zone temperature setpoint will take priority over the relative humidity setpoints.
DEFROST
For defrost operation, a sensor is wired in series with the DX cooling relay. When a defrost condition is detected, the condensing unit is disabled, and the unit is placed in the DEFROST mode.
During DEFROST the condensing unit is O FF the outside air damper is set to the minimum positions, and the fan will continue to oper­ate as continuous. The unit will re­main in the DEFROST mode until the senor resets at 48°F. The unit will return to NORMAL operation af­ter the mode is discontinued.
FRE EZE AVOIDANCE FRE EZE AVOIDANCE is used as low
ambient temperature protection, and is only invoked when the fan is
O FF. This includes the UNOCCUPIED
mode when there is no call for ca­pacity, or any other time the fan is
UV-SVP01A-EN 45
Unit Operation
OFF due to a safety or command.
The controller enters the FRE EZE
AVOIDANCE mode when an out-
door air temperature is present (communicated or hardwired) and it is below the freeze avoidance set­point (configurable). The controller disables freeze avoidance when the outdoor air temperature rises 3°F above the freeze avoidance setpoint.
When the controller is in the freeze avoidance mode:
q All water valves are driven
open to allow water flow through the coil
q Fan is OFF q Face-and-bypass damper
(when present) is in full BYPASS
q DX and electric heat are OFF
MORNING WARM-UP
The Tracer ZN.520 controller keeps the modulating outdoor air damp­er closed anytime during the OCCU-
PIED mode when the space
temperature is 3°F or more below the heating setpoint.
The damper remains closed indefi­nitely during morning warm-up until the space temperature is with­in 2°F of the effective heating set­point. The unit runs at full capacity until setpoint is met.
COOL-DOWN
The Tracer ZN.520 controller keeps the modulating outdoor air damp­er closed for up to one hour at ev­ery transition from UNOC CUPIED to
OC CUPIED mode when the space
temperature is 3°F or more above the cooling setpoint.
The damper remains closed during cool-down until the space temper­ature is within 2°F of the effective cooling setpoint. The unit runs at full capacity until setpoint is met.
Data Sharing—LonWorks
Tracer ZN.520 allows peer-to-peer data communication through the use of LonWork’s technology. Data such as space temperature set­point, occupancy, etc. can be shared from a master controller to
a peer controller over a twisted pair of communication wire with or without the presence of a front end building management system.
(See Figure 23: “Simple data shar­ing application ”) This ability al-
lows units to operate with the same data to prevent conflicting control.
Data sharing is established through the use of “bindings”. Bindings are set up through the Rover service tool.
The Tracer ZN.520 controller in­cludes a network variable for mas­ter/slave operation. This variable includes all of the information re­quired for the slave units to oper­ate with master controller. (See
Figure 24: “More complex data sharing application”)
For more information on establish­ing bindings, see the Rover service tool manual. For a complete listing on shared points see “Appendix— Data Lists” on page64.

Unit Operation
Power-Up
When 24 VAC is initially applied to the controller, the following se­quence of events occurs:
q Green status LED turns ON . q All outputs are controlled OFF. q The controller reads input
values to determine initial values.
q Random-start timer expires (5
to 30 seconds).
q When POWER-UP CONTROL WAIT
is enabled, the controller waits 0-120 seconds (depending on configuration) to allow ample time for communicated control data to input. If the controller does not receive communi­cated information, standalone control is assumed.
q All modulating valves and
dampers calibrate closed.
q NORMAL operation begins.
Occupancy
The valid occupancy modes for the Tracer ZN.520 controller are:
q OCC UPIED - Normal operating
mode for occupied spaces or daytime operation.
q UNOCCUPIED - Normal
operating mode for unoccupied spaces or nighttime operation.
q OCC UPIED STANDBY - Mode
used to reduce the heating and cooling demands, while providing ventilation, during the occupied hours when the space is vacant or unoccupied.
q OCC UPIED BYPASS -Used to
temporarily place the unit into the occupied operation.
The occupancy mode can be hard­wired to the controller via the oc­cupancy binary input or communicated to the controller.
OCC UPIED mode
When the controller is in the OC CU-
PIED mode, the unit attempts to
maintain the space temperature at the active occupied heating or cooling setpoint.
OCC UPIED mode is the default
mode of the Tracer ZN.520 control­ler.
UNOCCUPIE D mode
When the controller is in the UN-
OCC UPIED mode, the unit attempts
to maintain space temperature at the stored unoccupied heating or cooling setpoint (i.e., config­urable through Tracer Summit or the Rover service tool) regardless of the presence of a hardwired or communicated setpoint. When the space temperature exceeds the stored unoccupied setpoint, the controller brings on 100% of the primary heating or cooling ca­pacity.
The UNOCC UPIED mode can be ini­tiated through a hardwired signal to the occupancy binary input or by a communicated request.
OCC UPIED STANDBY mode
The OC CUPIED STANDBY mode al­lows the unit to operate at a heat­ing or cooling setpoint between the occupied and unoccupied set­points to help maintain the envi­ronment while decreasing energy consumption.
This mode decreases the ventila­tion for heating or cooling during brief periods of vacancy in the space. Unit operation in this mode is similar to the occupied mode ex­cept for the different heating and cooling setpoints and a different outside air damper position.
The OC CUPIED STANDBY mode is initiated only when occupancy is communicated to the Tracer ZN.520 controller and the hard­wired signal to the occupancy in­put is calling for unoccupied operation.
OCC UPIED BYPASS mode
The OCCUPIED BY PASS mode is used to transition the unit from the
UNOCCUPIED mode to the OCC U- PIE D mode for a period of time
from 0 to 4 hours (configurable through Rover. Default=RUN). The controller can be placed in OC CU-
PIE D BYPASS mode by either com-
municating an occupancy request of BYPASS or by using the TIMED
OVE RRIDE (i.e., ON) button on the
Trane zone sensor.
ON and CANCEL Buttons
Some Trane zone sensors have ON and CANCEL buttons for timed over- ride operation. Pressing the ON button on the zone sensor when the unit is in the UNOCC UPIED mode initiates the OCC UPIED BY-
PASS mode and initializes the by-
pass timer. The CANCEL button is used to send the unit back into UN-
OCC UPIED mode before the bypass
timer has expired. The ON button may also be used
for the unit identification or the “WINK” feature. (See “Winking” on page38.for more information.) When the Tracer ZN.520 controller is connected to a Tracer Summit system or the Rover service tool, the ON button may be used in place of the service pin for easy unit identification.
Heating And Cooling Changeover Logic
The Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Control­ler can receive communicated re­quests for heating or cooling operation. The communicated variable nviApplicMode is used to communicate the requests for the controller's operating mode based on the following values:
0 = Auto (mode determined by
controller)
1 = Heat (uses heating
setpoints) 2 = Morning Warm-up 3 = Cool (uses cooling
setpoints)
UV-SVP01A-EN 39
Unit Operation
4 = Night Purge (air
changeover) not supported
5 = Pre-cool (morning cool
down)
6 = Off (no unit operation
allowed) 7 = Test (special test mode) 8 = Emergency Heat not
supported
9 = Fan Only (no heating or
cooling allowed)
All other enumerations will be in­terpreted as Auto.
As the controller automatically de­termines its heating or cooling mode, it changes from cool to heat or from heat to cool, while the error (integrated over time between the active setpoint and the space tem-
perature) is (900 °Fh Sec). Integra- tion only begins once the heating and cooling capacity is equal to 0% or the discharge air temperature is being limited by the discharge air temperature control limits.(See
Figure 17: “Heat/Cool Changeover logic”).
Figure 17: Heat/Cool Changeover logic
If the measured space temperature is 69 °F and the active cooling set­point is 72 °F, the error between the space temperature and the set­point is three degrees. If the same error exists for one minute (60 sec­onds), the integration term is (3 °Fh60 Sec) or (180 °Fh Sec).
The Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Control­ler changes from heating to cool­ing and cooling to heating when the integration term exceeds (900 °FhSec). Along with satisfy­ing the integration for heating and cooling changeover, the measured space temperature must fall out­side the setpoint range. This means the space temperature must be greater than the active
40 UV-SVP01A-EN
cooling setpoint or lower than the active heating setpoint.
Example: If the cooling setpoint is 75°F and the heating setpoint 70°F, any space temperature greater than 75°F or less than 70°F is outside the setpoint range.
Once the integration term is satis­fied and the space temperature is outside the setpoint range, the controller changes modes. Howev­er, before the unit's heating or cooling capacity ramps up, the controller checks to make sure it is capable of heating or cooling.
For some units, heating and cool­ing capability exists with local re­sources such as electric heat or
compressors. For these units, cen­tral heating or cooling plan opera­tion is not required for heating or cooling because they are capable of providing their own local heat­ing or cooling.
For 2-pipe changeover and 4-pipe changeover units with hydronic ca­pacity, heating and cooling is pro­vided through hydronic. For those hydronic, central heating or cool­ing plant operation is required for the unit to deliver heating or cool­ing. To determine whether the cen­tral plant is providing the desired water temperature, an entering water temperature sensor (either hardwired or communicated) must be present.
Unit Operation
The entering water must be five degrees or more above the space temperature to allow hydronic heating, and five degrees or more below the space temperature to al­low hydronic cooling.
If the desired water temperature is available, the unit begins normal heating and cooling operation. If the measured entering water tem­perature is not adequate for the desired heating or cooling, the controller begins the entering wa­ter temperature sampling logic.
The Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Control­ler operates the modulating valves and dampers based on a heating or cooling capacity calculated by the control algorithm. The control algorithm calculates the heating or cooling capacity based on the measured space temperature, the active setpoint and the discharge air temperature. When the mea­sured space temperature is within the active heating and cooling set­points, the heating and cooling ca­pacity approaches zero.
Cooling Operation
During the C OOLING mode, the Tracer ZN.520 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:
q Occupied cooling setpoint q Occupied standby cooling
setpoint q 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 (0-100%). The outputs are con­trolled based on the unit configu­ration and the requested cooling capacity.
Heating Operation
During the H EATING mode, the Tracer ZN.520 controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the active heating setpoint. Based on the controller’s occupan­cy mode, the active heating set­point is one of the following:
q Occupied heating setpoint q Occupied standby heating
setpoint q Unoccupied heating setpoint 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 (0-100%). The outputs are con­trolled based on the unit configu­ration and the requested heating capacity.
Fan Operation
For multiple fan speed applica­tions, the Tracer ZN.520 controller allows separate default fan speeds to be configured for heating and cooling modes. When the fan mode switch is in the AUTO posi­tion or no hardwired input exists, the fan operates at the configured default fan speed (i.e, HIGH).
The Tracer ZN.520 controller also allows the default fan speed to be configured as AU TO. When the fan speed switch is in the AUTO posi­tion and the default fan speed is configured as AU TO, the unit may change fan speeds based on the requested heating or cooling ca­pacity. In this mode, the unit fan will operate at LOW speed until the requested capacity requires HIGH fan speed operation to maintain space comfort.
The fan mode request can be ei­ther hardwired or communicated to the Tracer ZN.520 controller. When both are present, the com­municated request has priority over the hardwired input. Addi­tional flexibility in the controller al-
lows the fan speed switch to be disabled. When this occurs, the unit will operate at the default fan speed unless a communicated re­quest is present.
During OCCUPIE D, OCCUPIED
STANDBY , and OCCUPIED BYPASS
modes, the fan will normally oper­ate continuously at the appropri­ate fan speed. The fan will only be
O FF in these modes when the MAN-
UAL OUTPUT TEST has been initiat-
ed, a latching diagnostic is present, or the communicated or hardwired fan speed is OFF. (See
“Manual Output Test” on page48.for more information.)
During the UNOCCUPIED mode, the unit fan is controlled OFF. When ca- pacity is required to maintain the unoccupied heating or cooling set­point, the unit fan is controlled to high speed regardless of a hard­wired or communicated fan speed.

Fan Off Delay
When a heating output is con­trolled off, the Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit 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
On a transition from off to any oth­er fan speed, the Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Controller automatically starts the fan on high speed and runs the fan at high speed for 0.5
UV-SVP01A-EN 41
Unit Operation
seconds. This provides the ample torque required to start all fan mo­tors from the off position.
Exhaust fan/damper operation
This binary point is a shared point with medium fan speed. For this point to be used for exhaust con­trol, the controller must be config­ured for a 1- or 2-speed fan. The exhaust fan/damper is coordinated with the unit fan and outdoor damper operation. The exhaust output is energized only when the unit fan is operating and the out­door damper position is greater than or equal to the configurable exhaust enable point. The exhaust fan output is disabled when the outdoor air damper position drops 10% below the exhaust enable point. If the enable point is less than 10%, the unit turns on at the enable point and off at 0.
Valve Operation
Modulating Valves
The Tracer ZN.520 controller sup­ports one or two modulating valves for hydronic heating and cooling operation. The main valve/ coil is used for cooling only, heat/ cool changeover (2-pipe applica­tions), or cooling (4-pipe applica­tions). The auxiliary valve/coil provides heating in 4-pipe and heating only applications.
At power-up, the Tracer ZN.520 controller drives the modulating valves to the closed position. The controller calibrates to the full closed position by overdriving the actuator 135%. Whenever the con­troller requests a valve position of zero or 100%, the controller over­drives the actuator 135% regard­less of the current valve position.
Face-and-Bypass Isolation Valves
Face-and-bypass units may use isolation valves to prevent unwant­ed water flow in the coil. This elim­inates problems such as radiant heat or excessive condensate in 2­pipe systems.
In 4-pipe applications, the isolation valves are used to prevent conflict­ing capacities within the unit.
Face-and-Bypass Damper Operation
Note: The Face-and-bypass actuator is located in the right­hand end pocket of the classroom unit ventilator.
The Tracer ZN.520 controller actu­ates a face-and- bypass damper to modulate a percentage of air to the face of the coil to maintain space comfort. When a requested capaci­ty is present, the unit modulates the damper to allow more air to the face of the coil. An averaging sen­sor is used on the discharge air to provide accurate capacity control.
Figure 18: Horizontal unit with face-and-bypass damper option.
42 UV-SVP01A-EN
Unit Operation
Figure 19: Vertical unit with face-and­bypass damper operations
Upon power-up, the controller cal­ibrates the face-and-bypass damp­er to the full bypass position by overdriving the damper actuator. During normal operation, whenev­er the Tracer ZN.520 controller generates a face-and-bypass damper position request of zero or 100%, the unit calibrates the actu­ator by overdriving the damper ac­tuator 135%.
Entering Water Temperature Sampling
Units with 4-pipe changeover and 2-pipe changeover require an en­tering water temperature to deter­mine if the appropriate water temperature is present for the re­quested mode (heating or cool­ing). This temperature may be communicated in an ICS system or hardwired to the Tracer ZN.520
controller for standalone applica­tions.
When a unit uses 2-way modulat­ing valves, it is possible for the wa­ter near the entering water temperature sensor to migrate to­wards ambient temperature. The Tracer ZN.520 controller has a wa­ter sampling feature for these ap­plications. When the sensed water temperature is not sufficient for the requested heat/cool mode (5°F above the zone temperature for heating or 5°F below the zone temperature for cooling), the con­troller drives the valve fully open. The controller then monitors the water temperature until the appro­priate temperature is sensed or until the three minute time limit expires. If the water temperature is acceptable for the requested ca­pacity, the unit continues normal operation. If the three minute tim­er expires and the water tempera­ture is still unsuitable, the unit closes the valve and waits one hour before invoking the sampling feature again.

Modulating Outdoor Air Operation
The Tracer ZN.520 controller oper­ates a modulating (3-wire floating) outdoor air damper actuator ac­cording to the effective occupan­cy, outdoor air temperature, space temperature, effective setpoint, discharge air temperature, and discharge air temperature set-
point. Default minimum damper positions are provided and can be changed for occupied and occu­pied standby modes, or for low speed operation. The controller can also receive a communicated outdoor air damper minimum po­sition from Tracer Summit. A com­municated minimum position from Tracer Summit has priority over all configured setpoints.
During the OC CUPIED mode the outdoor air damper will always be controlled to the effective mini­mum position unless ASHRAE Cy­cle I, ASHRAE Cycle II, or economizing modes are active.

UV-SVP01A-EN 43
Unit Operation
Automatic Outdoor Air Damper Adjustment
The Tracer ZN.520 controller is ca­pable of using different minimum outdoor air damper positions for high and low fan speeds, which are configurable. This allows the venti­lation rate to be maintained when switching between fan speeds.
Note: The typical reduction in airflow between high and low fan speeds is 25%, however, if precise control is desired, an air balancer should be consulted.
Economizer Operation
Note: When there is a request for 0% or 100% actuator position, the actuator will overdrive the actuator 135% to help maintain calibration.
With a valid outdoor air tempera­ture (hardwired or communicated), Tracer ZN.520 uses the modulating economizer damper as the highest priority source of cooling.
The controller initiates the econo­mizer function if the outdoor air temperature is cold enough to be used for free cooling capacity. If the outdoor air temperature is less than the economizer enable set­point (absolute dry bulb), the con­troller modulates the outdoor air damper between the minimum po­sition and 100% to control the amount of cooling capacity. When the outdoor air temperature rises 5°F above the economizer enable setpoint, the outdoor air damper returns to its minimum position and mechanical cooling is initiated.
ASHRAE Cycle I
ASHRAE Cycle I admits 100% out­door air except during the warm up cycle or the unoccupied mode. To set up the Tracer ZN.520 controller for ASHRAE Cycle I conformance, set the occupied outdoor air damp­er minimum position to 100%.
44 UV-SVP01A-EN
ASHRAE Cycle II
The Tracer ZN.520 controller con­forms to ASHRAE Cycle II by allow­ing the modulating outdoor air damper to maintain a minimum position during the occupied mode unless economizing is enabled or the space temperature falls more than 3°F below the effective set­point.
If the space temperature falls more than 2°F below the setpoint, the outdoor air damper will begin to close. When the space temperature hits 3°F below the setpoint, the outdoor air damper is completely closed.
Figure 22: ASHRAE cycle 2
DX Operation
Tracer ZN.520 supports direct ex­pansion (DX) compressor opera­tion for cooling only.
The controller does not allow both the DX compressor and economiz­er to operate at the same time. This prevents problems where the en­tering air temperature is too low for the evaporator coil to operate as designed.
Tracer ZN.520 also includes a fixed minimum on/off time of 3 minutes for compressor operation to pre­vent short cycling of the compres­sor.
Electric Heat Operation
The Tracer ZN.520 controller sup­ports 1 or 2 stages of electric heat control.
To control space temperature, electric heat is cycled to control the discharge air temperature. The rate of cycling is dependent on the load in the space and the temperature of the incoming fresh air.
Baseboard Heat Operation
The Tracer ZN.520 controller can be configured to support one stage of baseboard heat. A 2 position valve or an electric heat contactor will be energized at 2.5°F below the effective heating setpoint. The baseboard heat is de-energized at 1°F below the effective heating setpoint.
The unit will provide heating ca­pacity as required regardless of the presence of baseboard heat. If the unit can not maintain the space temperature, the baseboard heat will come on as a secondary stage.
If baseboard heat is to be used as the primary source of heating, the discharge air high limit should be set to a moderate temperature. This will allow the ventilation air to be tempered and avoid a “drafty” feeling. The baseboard heat will then operate as the heating capaci­ty for the space.
In the UNOCC UPIED mode, the baseboard heat and unit heating capacity are brought on simulta­neously as needed to maintain the unoccupied setpoint.
Exhaust Fan Operation
The exhaust fan is coordinated with the unit fan and outdoor air damper operation. The exhaust fan output is energized only when the unit fan is operating and the out­door air damper position is greater
Unit Operation
than or equal to the configurable exhaust enable setpoint. This is useful for exhaust fans designed to offset the added economizer ventilation.
The exhaust fan is disabled when the outdoor air damper position drops 10% below the exhaust en­able point. If the exhaust fan en­able setpoint is less than 10%, the Tracer ZN.520 controller energizes the exhaust fan at the enable point and disables it when the outdoor air damper closes.
Output Overrides
Manual Output Test
Manual output test allows the bi­nary outputs to be energized in a predefined sequence.(For more in- formation see, Manual Output Test, on page 48 for more informa-
tion.)
Water Valve Override
To enable quicker water balanc­ing, the controller allows a user to specify the desired state of all wa­ter valves. The values supported are:
q Open all valves q Close all valves
The valves in the system will re­main open for two hours or until normal operation is resumed.
The Tracer Summit or the Rover service tool is required to access this feature.
Fan Status
There are two ways to do fan sta­tus monitoring:
1. The status of the fan is reported based on the state of the binary output(s) dedicated to fan control. The fan status is reported as HIG H or LOW whenever the corresponding binary output is directed ON.
The fan status is reported as
OFF when none of the fan out-
puts are directed ON.
2. The Tracer ZN.520 controller has a binary input available for a fan status device (current sensing relay or differential pressure switch) which can provide feedback of fan opera­tion. If the device does not indicate fan operation after 1 minute, a unit shutdown is ini­tiated, and the unit is latched
OFF.
Filter Status/ Maintenance Timer
The unit filter status\maintenance timer is based on the cumulative run hours of the unit fan. The con­troller compares the fan run time against an adjustable fan run hour limit and recommends unit main­tenance as required.
The Rover service tool is used to edit the maintenance required set­point time. Once the setpoint limit is exceeded, the controller gener­ates a MAIN TENANCE REQUIRED infor­mational diagnostic. When the maintenance required setpoint time is set to zero, the controller disables this feature.
You can use the Trace Summit or the Rover service tool to clear the
MAINTENANC E REQUIRED informa-
tional diagnostic. Once the diag­nostic is cleared, the controller resets the fan run time to zero and begins accumulating fan run hours again.
Note: If at any time the unit loses power, the timer is reset to zero.
Other Modes
DEHUMIDIFICATION
Note: If the unit is in the unoccupied mode, the dehumidification routine will not operate
Dehumidification is possible when mechanical cooling is available; the heating capacity is 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 coils simultaneously to dehumidify the space. When de­humidifying, the discharge air temperature is controlled to main­tain the space temperature at the current setpoint.
Economizing is disabled during the dehumidification mode.
Note: While in the dehumidification mode, if there is a call for capacity by the unit, the zone temperature setpoint will take priority over the relative humidity setpoints.
DEFROST
For defrost operation, a sensor is wired in series with the DX cooling relay. When a defrost condition is detected, the condensing unit is disabled, and the unit is placed in the DEFROST mode.
During DEFROST the condensing unit is O FF the outside air damper is set to the minimum positions, and the fan will continue to oper­ate as continuous. The unit will re­main in the DEFROST mode until the senor resets at 48°F. The unit will return to NORMAL operation af­ter the mode is discontinued.
FRE EZE AVOIDANCE FRE EZE AVOIDANCE is used as low
ambient temperature protection, and is only invoked when the fan is
O FF. This includes the UNOCCUPIED
mode when there is no call for ca­pacity, or any other time the fan is

Unit Operation
OFF due to a safety or command.
The controller enters the FRE EZE
AVOIDANCE mode when an out-
door air temperature is present (communicated or hardwired) and it is below the freeze avoidance set­point (configurable). The controller disables freeze avoidance when the outdoor air temperature rises 3°F above the freeze avoidance setpoint.
When the controller is in the freeze avoidance mode:
q All water valves are driven
open to allow water flow through the coil
q Fan is OFF q Face-and-bypass damper
(when present) is in full BYPASS
q DX and electric heat are OFF
MORNING WARM-UP
The Tracer ZN.520 controller keeps the modulating outdoor air damp­er closed anytime during the OCCU-
PIED mode when the space
temperature is 3°F or more below the heating setpoint.
The damper remains closed indefi­nitely during morning warm-up until the space temperature is with­in 2°F of the effective heating set­point. The unit runs at full capacity until setpoint is met.
COOL-DOWN
The Tracer ZN.520 controller keeps the modulating outdoor air damp­er closed for up to one hour at ev­ery transition from UNOC CUPIED to
OC CUPIED mode when the space
temperature is 3°F or more above the cooling setpoint.
The damper remains closed during cool-down until the space temper­ature is within 2°F of the effective cooling setpoint. The unit runs at full capacity until setpoint is met.

Tracer ZN.520 allows peer-to-peer data communication through the use of LonWork’s technology. Data such as space temperature set­point, occupancy, etc. can be shared from a master controller to
a peer controller over a twisted pair of communication wire with or without the presence of a front end building management system.
(See Figure 23: “Simple data shar­ing application ”) This ability al-
lows units to operate with the same data to prevent conflicting control.
Data sharing is established through the use of “bindings”. Bindings are set up through the Rover service tool.
The Tracer ZN.520 controller in­cludes a network variable for mas­ter/slave operation. This variable includes all of the information re­quired for the slave units to oper­ate with master controller. (See
Figure 24: “More complex data sharing application”)
For more information on establish­ing bindings, see the Rover service tool manual. For a complete listing on shared points see “Appendix— Data Lists” on page64.

Troubleshooting
Safeties
Freeze Protection
The Tracer ZN.520 controller has two methods of freeze protection.
1. An optional binary freezestat that is wired to a binary input. The freezestat is a capillary tube type and is factory set to 35°F. When this device opens, a “Low Coil Temp Detect” diagnostic is generated.
2. Using the discharge air tem­perature sensor, if the dis­charge air temperature falls below the discharge air low limit, the controller increases the heating capacity to temper the air. If the discharge air temperature remains below the discharge air low limit for 3 minutes, the controller gen­erates a “Low Coil Temp Detect” diagnostic.
Fan Failure
A “Low Air Flow—Fan Failure” di­agnostic is generated when a fan status device is present and fails to close after 1 minute of unit start-up or when it opens for more than 1 minute during normal unit opera­tion.
Space Temperature Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated a space temperature input and then the input becomes invalid, a space temperature failure diag­nostic occurs.
Entering Water Temperature Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated an entering water temperature in­put and then the input becomes in­valid, an entering water temp­erature failure diagnostic occurs.
Discharge Air Temperature Limit
When the discharge air exceeds the high or low limit setpoint and the unit can not correct it by alter­ing capacity, a “Discharge Air Temp Limit” diagnostic is generat­ed.
Outdoor Air Temperature Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated an outdoor air temperature input and then the input becomes in­valid, an outdoor air temperature failure diagnostic occurs.
Humidity Input Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated a relative humidity input and then the input becomes invalid, a hu­midity input failure diagnostic oc­curs.
CO2 Sensor Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated
input and then the input be-

input failure
2
Generic AIP Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated a generic analog input and then the input becomes invalid, a ge­neric analog input failure diagnos­tic occurs.
Defrosting-Compressor Lockout
The defrost stat used with Tracer ZN.520 on DX units is wired in se­ries with the condensing unit. When it opens to indicate a frost condition, the Tracer ZN.520 sens­es the open circuit and de-energiz­es the condensing unit output. A defrosting diagnostic is generated at this point.
Maintenance Required
Note: If power to the unit is cycled or discontinued for any reason, all maintenance timers are automatically reset.
The “Maintenance Required” di­agnostic is generated when the fan run-time exceeds the configurable limit. This diagnostic is useful for filter change notification.
Local Fan Mode Failure
If the hardwired fan mode input to the Tracer ZN.520 controller is present and then becomes invalid, a local fan mode failure diagnostic is generated.
Local Setpoint Failure
If the hardwired setpoint input to the Tracer ZN.520 controller is present and then becomes invalid, a local setpoint failure diagnostic is generated.
Generic Temperature Failure
If the Tracer ZN.520 has validated a generic temperature input and then the input becomes invalid, a generic temperature input failure diagnostic occurs.
Invalid Unit Configuration
If the Tracer ZN.520 has been con­figured improperly or loses its configuration, an invalid unit con­figuration diagnostic is generated. The unit must be re-configured with a valid configuration to cor­rect this problem.

Note2: During manual output test, these diagnostics make the green status LED light in a two-blink pattern. For more information see, Manual Output Test, on page 48 for more information.) Note3: When the entering water temperature is required but not present, the Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit 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 air damper operation is permitted. Note4: These diagnostics are non-latching and automatically reset when the input is present and valid. Note5: When the outdoor air temperature sensor has failed or is not present, the Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit 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. A value of Enable or Disable for nviEconEnable overrides these decisions, regardless of the presence of an outdoor air temperature value or failure.For more information see, Interoperability, on page 12 for more information.)For more information see, Data Sharing—LonWorks, on page 46 for more information.)

a unit when the Low Coil Temper­ature Detection diagnostic occurs. When this diagnostic occurs, the controller responds as defined in
Table 28: Tracer™ ZN.520 Unit Controller diagnostics
.
After the controller detects the Low Coil Temperature Detection diagnostic, the unit waits 30 min­utes before invoking the automatic diagnostic reset function. The au­tomatic diagnostic reset function clears the Low Coil Temperature Detection diagnostic and attempts to restore the controller to normal operation. The controller resumes normal operation until another di-

Probable Cause Explanation
Unit wiring
The wiring between the controller outputs and the outdoor air damper must be present and correct for normal damper operation.
The controller must be properly configured based on the actual installed end devices and application.
Unit configuration
When the unit configuration does not match the actual end devices, the damper may not work correctly.
The controller includes a manual output test sequence you can use to verify output operation and

Appendix—Timeclock
Setting the Time Clock
The time clock must be pro­grammed for the unit to operate
in occupied mode (under load). If not programmed, the unit will run in the unoccupied mode. Power
must be supplied to the unit for the time clock to be set.
The following procedure covers: q setting the current time and
day
q setting the program (events) q reviewing and changing the
programs, and
q overriding programs
(manually)

Set the Time and Day
The time clock (Figure 36) is locat­ed behind the access door on the top right of the unit.
1. Press Res. (Reset) to clear the
display and any program data. The “day” numbers (1-7) will blink.
2. Hold h (Hour) in and toggle
±1h to select military or a.m./ p.m. mode. If a.m/p.m. is
UV-SVP01A-EN 65
elected, AM appears in the display. Release h.
3. Press and hold (¹) (Run). If daylight savings time is in effect, ±1h should appear in the display. If not, press ±1h to clear.
4. Still holding (¹) down, set the current hour and minutes by pressing h and m respec­tively. Then set the day with the Day key using the number corresponding to the day of
Minute
the week (1 is Monday, 7 is Sunday).
5. Release (¹) and the colon “:” in the display will begin flash­ing.
Set the Program
Determine in advance how you want the unit to operate.
For normal occupied operation, the unit “load” is set ON, whether in heating or cooling. This means
Appendix—Timeclock

the unit will respond differently to changing conditions and maintain a higher comfort level.
For unoccupied operation or “no load” conditions, a lower comfort level is provided. The load can be switched off by using the program for periods when the room will be unoccupied.
Note: If the room will be unoccupied, the time clock should be programmed accordingly to conserve energy. The position of the outside damper can allow too much outside air in an unoccupied space if the unit’s time clock is set for “load” or occupied mode and can result in unnecessary unit cycling and undesirable heat transfer.
Remember that the program is easily changed and can also be overridden after it is initially set.
1. Press the Prog. key. Spaces or fields for entering time (hours and minutes) appear as dashes separated by a colon.
2. Press Prog. again. The num- ber of free (available) pro­grams is given in this case to be “Fr20” or 20.
3. Press Prog. again to return to the event time mode.
4. Toggle the “Load” key on () 1or off (O) to link the time with the action.
In the example from the pre­ceding step, you would set the load ON.
5. Enter the time for the first pro­gram event.
For example, should you want the unit to operate under load for an occupied period at 8:00 a.m., enter “ 08:00AM on the display using the h and m keys. Better yet, enter the time
a half hour or so before the arrival of people, so the unit will bring the room up (or down” to the preset occupied temperature setpoints).
6. If the program event you just entered will be the same every day (as indicated by all seven day numbers at the top of the display) you can press Prog. to lock in that event and go to the next event. If not and the program will vary during the week (e.g. different program for the weekend), don’t press Prog. go to the following step.
Note: If you press Prog. by mistake, simply continue to press Prog. until the event comes up in review and make the change.
7. With the time and hour for the event set, select the day or days for which the event applies by pressing the Day key. Toggling the Day key gives you ten options for indi­vidual days or combinations that can be applied. Select one and lock it in by pressing Prog.
In the example, if you only want the unit to operate under load for the time set for week­days, you would select “1 2 3 4 5” by pressing Day, then select another program event for the weekend.
8. Repeat the preceding steps to set the next program event. A “load: event is followed by an “unload” event. For example if
the unit is programmed for a load condition in the morning, you could program the unit to unload later in the day or at night when the room will become unoccupied for a period. If the occupied and
unoccupied periods vary widely but predictably, you can program a cycle of events
during any day or combination of days (up to 20 events)
9. Note: If only one event is pro­grammed, the unit will remain in that load or unload condi­tion all the time.
10. When all the events are pro­grammed, press the (¹) (run) key for normal operation. The current time as set will be dis­played, along with the run symbol (¹).
Review and Change Programs
To review a program and events at any time, press Prog. at any time. Programs events will be displayed in the sequence they were entered with repeated presses of Prog.
To change a program, select the event as in the previous paragraph and alter the new data (day, hour minute) as desired to overwrite the old program. Press Prog to store the data.
To delete a program event, select the event again and press h and m until dashes appear in the time dis­play. Press either Prog. or (¹) until the dashes flash in the display.
To reset all program data, press Res.
Override Program (Manual Operation)
While in the Run mode (¹ symbol in display), press the hand key
to reverse the load status (e.g. if the load was ON, it is now OFF). A
hand symbol appears to indi­cate the override is active.
At the next scheduled event, auto­matic (program) control will re­sume eliminating the override.
To switch the load permanently ON, press the key a second
time. [ ] appears in the display.
66 UV-SVP01A-EN
Appendix—Timeclock
To switch the load permanently OFF, press the key a third time.
[O] appears in the display. To return to automatic (pro-
grammed) operation, press the key a fourth time. Run ¹ appears in the display.
NOTE: The Main Power Disconnect switch is located on the lower right side of the unit behind the right front cabinet panel. It is only used to remove power to the unit for servicing.
