• Product overview (hardware, model numbers, licensing)

• Navigating theTracer SC user interface, performing daily operator BAS tasks

• Interpreting the LEDs and 7-segment display, troubleshooting

This guide does not cover programming and configuration. For more information on advanced

user tasks, refer to theTracer SC System Controller Installation and Setup Guide, BAS-SVX31-EN,

or access theTracer SC Help by clicking the help icon located on the global navigation bar.

How to Use This Guide

Although it is best practice to familiarize yourself with all aspects ofTracer SC, it is not necessary

to read this guide in any particular order or in its entirety.To quickly locate a specific task or topic,

simply refer to theTable of Contents on page 3.

The sections in this guide that describeTracer SC applications will begin with an overview of the

application (Alarms, Reports, for example) and an accompanying figure that shows the application

highlighted on the left-hand navigation bar (see Figure 1).

Note: If you are reading a copy of this document that was translated from English, please note that

all figures and illustrations in this guide are for navigational purposes only.The data and

Product Overview

Licensing and Hardware

The number of devices that are supported is limited by the number within the application license.

The maximum amount is 240 devices in a single license. As ofTracer SC version 3.0, allTracer SCs

ship with a base license installed.The order number for an SC Application license is

BMCF000AAA0AE00 (15 devices).

To utilize the expanded communications functionality for multi-SC facilities, the following are

required:

• OneTracer SC with an Application license

• One or moreTracer SCs with a Base license

Setup Requirements

The following are required for setup and normal operation:

Scenario 1: Single SC Facility

• Tracer SC must have an application license in order to install equipment and facilitate control.

• Ethernet port 1 must be used for communication over BACnet/IP.

• BACnet MS/TP port network number cannot exceed 4193.

Scenario 2: Multi-SC Facility

• OneTracer SC must have an application license in order to install equipment and facilitate

control.

• AdditionalTracer SCs do not require a license.

• Ethernet port 1 must be used for communication between multiple SCs over BACnet/IP

• Tracer SC Device IDs must be unique.

• BACnet MS/TP port network number cannot exceed 4193.

• Tracer SCs on separate subnets must have one BBMD per subnet.

• UDP ports must be the same across all SCs in the facility.

Note: Both theTracer SC-App and theTracer SC-Base must be configured to communicate to each

other over BACnet/IP.They can reside on the same network subnet or on a separate subnet.

Scenario 3: Trane Intelligent Services (TIS)

• No additional license required;Tracer SC isTIS-Ready out of the box.

• ConfigureTracer SC Ethernet port 1 or 2 to communicate to the Internet.

• TIS must be enabled.

Navigating the User Interface

The navigation tree

This component contains the logically ordered and grouped content of all the elements of your

HVAC system. It is a complex component that is built dynamically based on a number of variables

and dependencies related to the configuration of a facility, the content of the HVAC, and other

systems operating in the facility. For more information, see “The NavigationTree,” p. 15.

Applying the Table Filter

Table filtering allows you to see only selected data by setting up rules and conditions.The option

to filter tables is available on the following pages:

• Alarms and Events

• Data Logs

• Reports

• Spaces

• Area, VAS, Chiller Plant (AlarmsTab)

To apply a table filter:

1. From one of the above mentioned pages, click the filter icon.The Filter dialog box appears.

2. From the Column drop-down

list, select a column on which to base your filter.

3. From the Condition drop-down

list, select a condition.

4. In the V

alue field, enter a value that the selected Column and Condition will filter.

5. Click Filter.The table displays results based on the applied filter.

6. Click the

button to add a rule. Up to three rules can be added to a filter.

7. Use the Matc

h drop-down list to include all rules or any rules.

To remove the filter, click Clear filter located directly above the first entry in the table on the page

you are viewing.

Example filter for Data Logs

Column = created by

Condition = is

The Navigation Tree

Drag a Tracer SC Component onto the Tree

You can create nodes on the tree by dragging them from the title of a component onto the tree, as

shown in Figure 2. Click and drag a component from theTracer SC page onto the tree. An image

representing the component appears red, then green when it is dragged over a valid area.

Depending on where you locate the dropped image, the new node will appear under the node you

drop it onto.To save your changes, lock the navigation tree by clicking the chain link icon.

Drag a Tree Component onto the Home Button

Click and drag a component from the tree as shown below, or from the title of anTracer SC

component on the page to the Home button.To save your changes, lock the navigation tree by

clicking the chain link icon.

Drag Tree Nodes to Other Locations

Nodes can be dragged and dropped to other locations on the tree. When a node is dropped onto

another node that is currently not a folder, the node icon will then appear as a folder icon. Multiple

nodes can be selected at the same time by clicking on multiple nodes.To save your changes, lock

the navigation tree by clicking the chain link icon.

Rename Tree Nodes

Nodes on the tree can be renamed directly within the tree. Rename a node by “slow” clicking on

the tree node while in unlocked mode. Slow is defined as two clicks on the same node spaced

between 1 and 5 seconds apart. This places the name of the node in edit mode, in which the old

name can be deleted and the new one entered.To save your changes, lock the navigation tree by

clicking the chain link icon.

Alarms and Events Log

The alarm handling capabilities ofTracer SC allow users to recei ve, view, acknowledge, and make

comments on building alarms and events.

The Alarms and Events page (Figure 1) contains a list of alarms and events that have been detected

by the system. Data displayed in the log includes when and where the event occurred and whether

operator acknowledgment is required.

To apply a filter to the table, see “Applying theTable Filter,” p. 13.

Taking Action on an Alarm

1. Click inside each row to select an alarm. Selected rows will be highlighted.

2. Click the actions button to refresh, add or view comments, acknowledge a comment, export the

alarm log, or delete all from the log.

Event Classes

Events can be assigned one of four severities.The severity icon appears in the severity column on

the Alarms and Events page.The severity column provides a way to sort the log according to the

severity of events and alarms.

Information

Events that require tracking but are not defined as alarms. Examples include the notification that

a lighting system will soon be activated, or a user logging on to the system.

Figure 1. Alarms and Events page

BAS-SVU025A-EN 19

Alarms and Events Log

Advisory

Alarms that do not affect the operation of the system but may be of concern to a user. Examples

include custom system control events or a user override of system equipment.

Service Required

Alarms that require the attention of service personnel.These might include dirty filter notifications

or sensor failures.

Critical

These alarms require the immediate attention of service personnel. Critical alarms indicate a major

failure of equipment that might result in property damage or excessive tenant comfort issues.

Examples may include compressor failures or an emergency shutdown.

20 BAS-SVU025A-EN

Reports

Reports provide useful information that can be used to make decisions about building operations.

TheTracer SC Reports page contains two tabs: Saved Reports and Scheduled Reports.

You can generate the following types of standard reports for Trane equipment:

• Site reports

• VAS commissioning reports

• Points reports

• Chiller reports

Reporting features include:

• Creating scheduled reports

• Scheduling reports to run during a specific date and time

• Specifying file storage options for scheduled reports
