Auto-commissioning 
sequence

Tracer VV550/551 VAV controllers 
provide an automatic commissioning 
sequence. With a discharge air 
temperature sensor installed, this 
feature exercises the air valve, fan, and 
heat in the box and records the 
discharge air temperature before and 
after the action. This allows the installer 
to easily checkout the operation of the 
box and commission by exception. The 
data from this test is retained in the 
controller for immediate reports or 
retrieval at a later date (for comparison 
purposes).

Manual test function

A Tracer VV550/551 VAV controller 
includes a manual test button, which 
enables a technician to easily exercise 
the outputs of the controller. On 
consecutive button presses, the 
controller steps through a predefined 
sequence that exercises all of the 
controller outputs.

Drive minimum and 
maximum from zone sensor

When applied with a Trane zone sensor 
module that includes a thumbwheel 
setpoint, a Tracer VAV VV550/551 
controller can easily be overridden to 
minimum and maximum flow. By simply 
turning the thumbwheel to 

, the 

controller drives the air valve to the 
minimum cooling flow setpoint. 
Similarly, turning the thumbwheel to 

∗∗

 

drives the air valve to the maximum 
cooling flow setpoint. This simple 
override feature is most useful during 
the checkout and balancing phases of a 
project.

Trane controller 
compatibility

Tracer VV550/551 VAV controllers are 
compatible with the latest generation of 
Trane control products. The controllers 
communicate over a LonTalk

®

 

communications link. This allows Tracer 
VV550/551 VAV controllers to exist on 
the same communication wire as other 
Trane controllers and to share data with 
them as required.

Interoperability

Tracer VV550/551 VAV controllers are 
designed with LonWorks

®

 technology 

and are LonMark

®

 certified. They follow 

the guidelines of the LonMark

®

 Space 

Comfort Controller (SCC) profile. As 
such, the Tracer VV550/551 controllers 
enable control system integration 
flexibility.
