Wiring Communication Link
The Tracer VV551 VAV controller communicates with the building automation system and with other controllers over a LonTalk® communication link. Comm5 is the Trane implementation of LonTalk® protocol. For instructions on
LonTalk® communication wiring, refer to the
Tracer Summit™ V17 Daily Operations Guide
, BMTX-SVU01 or to the installation manual for the applicable building automation system.
Input/Output Terminal Wiring
The input/output wiring terminals for the VV551 controller are a combination of fixed function and application-specific connections. All input/output terminal wiring for the VV551 controller must meet the following requirements:
• All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code™ (NEC) and local codes
• Use only 18–22 AWG, stranded, tinned-copper, unshielded, twisted-pair wire
• Binary input and output wiring should be a maximum length of 300 ft (100 m)
• Analog input and output wiring should be a maximum length of 300 ft (100 m)
• Do not run input/output wires in the same wire bundle with any A/C power wires
• A pressure sensor can be connected with up to 300 feet of tubing and up to 60 feet of wire
The following tables describe input/output terminals, ratings, and the heat/fan output configurations by application.
