SC360 System Controller
18-HD95D1-1C-EN 7
5.4 Wiring
For ease of installation, the SC360 comes with a
CAN connector pack and has two wiring options.
There is a wire connector located in the middle,
back of the unit and another one at the front,
bottom of the unit.
When installing the SC360 using the wall Sub-
base and back connector, follow the steps
below. The instructions in Section 5.5 are
for the CAN connector pack and use with the
SC360 bottom connector only.
1. Adjust the length and position of each wire to
reach the proper terminal on the connector
block of the Sub-base. Strip 1/4” of insulation
from each wire. Do not allow adjacent
wires to short together when connected. If
stranded thermostat cable is used, one or
more strands will have to be cut to allow
the cable to fit connector. For use with solid
conductor 18 ga. thermostat wire.
2. Match and connect control wires to the
proper terminals on the connector block.
Refer to the Field Wiring Connection
Diagrams shown later in this document.
3. Push excess wire back into the wall and seal
the hole to prevent air leaks.
NOTE: Air Leaks in the wall behind the
SC360 can cause improper operation.
4. Attach the SC360 to the Sub-base.
5. Turn ON power to the heating and cooling
equipment.
5.5 Trane & American Standard Link Low Voltage Wire Connectors
Link mode uses simple connectors for low voltage
connections. These connections are color coded
which makes the installation easier and quicker.

Do the following to make the connections from the
actual thermostat wire to the connector.
NOTE: These connectors are necessary at the
communicating outdoor unit, communicating indoor
unit, distribution board(s), system controller and
communicating accessories.
1. Strip the Red, White, Green and Blue thermostat
wires back 1/4”.
2. Insert the wires into the connector in the correctly
colored locations.
3.
When you feel it release, allow each wire to
slide in further.
4. Pull back on the wires individually and slightly
and check if the wires are seated properly. If
each wire does not pull out for all four wires, the
connection is complete.
5. Connectors are ONE-TIME-USE ONLY. If the
thermostat wire gets broken off inside of the
connector, the connector must be replaced. If a
wire color gets inserted into the wrong connector
position, it may be possible to work the wire back
out of the connector.
DO NOT REUSE THE CONNECTOR –
REPLACE IT INSTEAD.
6. Wire colors are for illustration purposes only.
If using a different color, ensure it lands at
the correct terminal throughout all of the
communicating control wiring.
Connect the CAN connector into the male coupling
on the low voltage harness at the Outdoor unit.
The air handler has two dedicated CAN Connector
headers on the Air Handler Control (AHC) board. In
Link communicating mode, both of them are in the
communicating loop. It does not matter which one
goes to the thermostat, System Controller, distribution
board, outdoor unit or any other Link accessory.
NOTE: For use with 18 ga. solid core thermostat wire.
