Binary inputs
The default configuration for each binary input (including normally open/closed)
of the Tracer™ AH.540 is set at the factory. For field-installed AH.541 controllers,
the configuration of the binary inputs must be set with Trane Rover
™
service
software.
Configure any binary input not in use (an input to which no device is physically
connected) as Not Used.
The Tracer AH.540 controller has six available binary inputs. The binary inputs
are connected to the Tracer AH.540 terminal board on inputs IN 7 through IN 12.
Normally these inputs are factory-configured for the following functions.
Binary inputs
• IN 7: Low temperature detection (freezestat)
• IN 8: Run/stop
• IN 9: Occupancy or generic
• IN 10: Supply fan status
• IN 11: Filter status
• IN 12: Exhaust fan status
Configure IN 9 either as Occupancy or as a Generic binary input. When
configured as a generic binary input, IN 9 does not affect controller operation.
Table 8 — Table Binary input controller operation
Note 1:
During low temp detect, run/stop, and supply fan status diagnostics, the controller disables all normal unit
operation of the fans, valves, and dampers.
Note 2:
The table below shows the controller’s response to low temp detect, run/stop, supply fan status, and exhaust
fan status latching diagnostics.
Table 9 — Control response to binary input latching diagnostics
Note 1:
When steam is the source of heat, the heat output is cycled open and closed when the controller is shut down
on a
Low Temp Detect
latching diagnostic. See
Steam valve cycling
in the
Sequence of operation
section for further
details.
