TRACKING CONTROLLERPRODUCT OVERVIEW

(TC-BAC) - BACNET MODULE

OperationThe TC is an advanced and fully configurable VAV terminal controller that can be used as a pressure independent zone control system.

The TC offers five thermostat options that provide a range of control from room temperature sensing, all the way to motion sensing. With a variety of output configurations, the TC can control analog heating and cooling valves, fan motors, and other types of analog devices. As well as On/Off heating and cooling stages, on/off fan operation, fan coils etc. With the use of the LCD Thermostat, balancing and system setup can be performed. Further, with the use of the LCD Thermostat with Motion Sensing, the TC can be used as a motion sensor and lighting controller with different levels of sensitivity, as well as a system balancing tool.

Expansion ModulesThe TC is also expandable for BACnet networking capabilities using the BACnet expansion module, which allows for MS/TP connectivity to building management systems. LED indicators show current status of communication and any electrical fault conditions. For Airflow measurement, two options are available. The first option uses a flow transducer combined with the SP300 sensor to measure and control to the targeted airflow. This is typically used with VAV terminal units. The second option uses an analog input that reads the signal from a Linear Module on a Venturi Valve. This system uses position feedback from the Venturi Valve. The expansion modules come equipped with a ribbon cable that is easy to plug in from the TC to the selected module.

Flow Response Chart

Output

HCCO box Cooling Min Cooling Flows Heating Min Heating FlowsNeutral Supply

Air Flow

PI = Cooling Duct air = Cold

PI = Heating Duct air = Cold

PI = Neutral Duct air = Cold

PI = Cooling Duct air = Hot

PI = Heating Duct air = Hot

PI = Neutral Duct air = Hot

PI = Cooling Duct air = Neutral

PI = Heating Duct air = Neutral

PI = Neutral Duct air = Neutral

Above is a Flow Response chart for the TC, showing the demand, Duct Air condition, and the controller’s output. E.g.: PI = Cooling, Duct Air = Cold, Output = Cooling Flows. This indicates that the Room Demand is in Cooling, the Duct Air is Cold, and the controller would modulate between the Cool Min and Cool Max values.

NOTE: If no Temperature Probe is present, the TC assumes cold duct air. PI = Proportional Integral = room load (either cooling/neutral/heating)

TECH TIP

Use the above table to determine what airflows are being targeted in certain modes.

Example: If TC is trying to heat the room (PI=heating) and cool air is being supplied (Duct air=Cold) it will chase its heating min flow.

MAC SET IN

Hardware - uses DIP switches on BACnet module for MAC address -default -recommended. Software - uses STAT to set MAC address -this OVERRIDES the hardware switches and could be confusing if used improperly. NOTE: The MAC address (range 1 to 99) is added to the device instance. Example: MAC address = 1, Device instance = 100 - total address for this device would be 101.

MAC ADDRESS HARDWARE: 1

Display current MAC address. NOTE: DIP switches and software MAC address are only read on startup! See device instance below.

DEVICE INSTANCE: 101

This is the 'software' BACnet address and MUST be unique on your building site (network). Range: 1 to 4,194,303. NOTE: After changing the device instance the STAT will send a RESET command to the TC to apply the ADDRESS changes. Addresses are only READ on startup, so after any changes you must reset the controller either via STAT (which is automatic) or cycle 24 VAC power. NOTE: Addresses are only read on startup to prevent a controller with faulty/damaged/improperly set DIP switches from popping up all over a network, which would be extremely difficult to troubleshoot.

BAUD RATE 76800

This sets the BACnet MS/TP baud rate. 9600 baud (all BACnet devices must at least support this speed) - slowest. 19200 baud. 38400 baud. 76800 baud (default baud rate for PRICE products) - fastest.

Setting the MAC Address MAC Address: MAC (media access control) must be UNIQUE on an MS/TP network segment within a building. An installer setting up an MS/TP segment with 30 devices must ensure each device has a UNIQUE MAC address (Range 1-99). The MAC address is set with dip switches on the BACnet Module. This is the hardware setup for the MAC address. The MAC address can also be set in software, through the LCD thermostat. This option of setting the address through software is available when the controller is not accessible to the user (finished drywall ceiling for example).

TECH TIP

Each device needs a unique MAC and device instance. All devices must be at the same baud rate. 24 VAC hot and common polarities are critical and must not be reversed on ANY devices! Reverse polarity will stop communication on that MS/TP segment.

RJ-12 CABLELINKER 2 INTERFACE

LAPTOP SETUP TOOL USB A-B CABLE DIAL THERMOSTAT

TECH TIP

When using a TC with a DIAL thermostat, the USB LINKER2 is one option for setting up the TC. Or you can purchase a single LCD thermostat (TC-TS-LCD) and use that for setup. Remember all settings are stored in the TC, not the STAT!

Linker 2 - USB Service Tool

The Price USB LINKER2 is the interface that can be used with any of the Price thermostats for the TC. The LINKER2 connects to a laptop (not supplied) via a Type A USB A to B cable supplied by Price, and then connects to the service jack of the thermostat via an RJ-12 Cable supplied by Price. The laptop is required as a setup tool to setup up your parameters for your VAV application. If a laptop is not available, an LCD Thermostat can be purchased as an upgrade and used as a setup/balancing tool. The LCD Thermostat provides full functionality for setting up system parameters.

REQUIRED ITEMS

LCD TERMOSTAT



Fault Solution

TC appears to be not responding or have no power. Green light on the controller is not blinking. Thermostat green indication light not on, or LCD screen is blank.

Check thermostat first for either green indication light, or LCD display. If either of these does not appear, then check the TC for power (green blinking light). If no power is present, check 24 VAC power with a Multimeter. Cycle power to the controller. If this doesn’t restore power, check the power that is feeding that controller for your problem.

Damper acts erratically Check actuator mounting; ensure that the damper is fully closed when the actuator is in the fully closed position. Pivot the grey release clutch on actuator and move by hand. Ensure that the set screw on the damper shaft is torqued down tight and no slipping is occurring. Also, ensure the 3 wires in the actuator itself are wired correctly. Green to COM, red to CW and yellow to CCW.

Airflow readings not as specified On TC's ordered with the VAV module option, ensure that the tubing is correct. Red tube from Price SP300 sensor to the positive terminal on the air flow sensor, green tube from SP300 to the negative terminal on the air flow sensor. Also, ensure that the tubes are fully over the barbed fitting on the sensor, and that the tubes are not pinched in any way.

Check inlet size of duct and ensure that size is correctly set in the controller. Note: the STAT does not store the duct size, it is stored in the TC.

24 VAC Binary Outputs not functioning Ensure that the TC has 24 VAC power.

Ensure that there is a call for heating or for cooling. If so, check to see that the indication light is on for the output.

The next step would be to check the output with a relay. Ensure that the relay has engaged (pulled in) for either heating or cooling application.

The next item to check for would be the Hot/COM jumper on the TC. Make sure that if you're switching the Hot side, that the jumper is on the Hot, likewise for switching a common, ensure the jumper is on the COM.

PRICE SP3000 Flow Sensor



Troubleshooting - ContinuedThe following information is provided in the event that the TC does not appear to function properly after installation.

Fault Solution

Analog Outputs not functioning Ensure that the TC has 24 VAC power.

Check the analog output for voltage with a Multimeter. You should see a voltage in the range of 0-10VDC. Direct Acting Output – 0 VDC indicates that the field device is closed or at a minimum position. 10 VDC indicates that the field device is open or at a full open position. Direct acting is typical with cooling applications.

Reverse Acting Output – 0VDC indicates that the field device is full open or maximum position, and 10VDC indicates fully closed or minimum position. Reverse acting is typical with heating applications.

SAT Sensor Analog input not functioning

Ensure that there is a sensor wired to the input on the TC. Check the type of sensor, it should be a 10k Ohm type J thermistor.

BACnet Communication Errors BACnet MS/TP is based on a RS-485 network. It must be wired in a daily chain configuration. A daisy chain means that there is only one main cable, and every network device is connected directly along its path.

DO NOT use Star, Bus, “T”, or any other type of network configuration. Any of these other network configurations will result in an unreliable network, and make troubleshooting almost impossible.

Correct polarity is imperative on MSTP wiring. Always ensure that the positive terminal on a device has the same color wire connected to it throughout the network, same for the negative terminal. Eg. Two wire conductor with black and white wires – black to the positive terminal, and white to the negative terminal. Keep this consistency throughout the network.

Troubleshooting - continued The following information is provided in the event that the Price Intelligent controller (PIC) does not appear to function properly after installation.

noituloStluaFBACnet Communication Errors The network should be terminated twice, once at the beginning,

and again at the end of each run. This is strongly recommended

The network speed or baud rate must be the same throughout the network. Note: the default speed for Price BACnet MS/TP controls is 76800. BACnet MS/TP currently supports 4 standard speeds which are: 9600, 19200, 38400 and 76800.

BACnet Communication Errors Binary address must be unique for each device on the network. No two devices can have the same address. This includes if you are incorporating a Price product into an existing network. Determine the existing addressing scheme for the existing network. The address is set on the addressable dip switches on the BACnet module which is expanded off of the PIC controller.

BACnet Communication Errors Grounding and 24 VAC polarity: Proper grounding is absolutely essential when wiring the MS/TP BACnet Network. Proper grounding will prevent many potential problems that can occur in a network of devices. Common symptoms of a poorly grounded network can include inconsistent BACnet MS/TP communications and damage from voltage spikes. The most practical method of grounding is to ground every 24 VAC transformer common/neutral used to power thecontrols. Connect the “common/neutral” wire of the SECONDARY side of the transformer to earth ground – such as the ground screw on in the electrical box.

BACnet Communication Errors Note: Flipping 24 VAC HOT and COMMON will cause the BACnet MS/TP network to stop communicating!!! Ensure HOT and COMMON are not reversed on ANY controllers. (Warning: Controllers will still power up and run even if HOT and COMMON are reversed. However output signals to other devices such as heaters, relays, etc will not work as intended!)

Grounding and 24 VAC polarity: Proper grounding is absolutely essential when wiring the MS/TP BACnet Network. Proper grounding will prevent many potential problems that can occur in a network of devices. Common symptoms of a poorly grounded network can include inconsistent BACnet MS/TP communications and damage from voltage spikes. The most practical method of grounding is to ground every 24 VAC transformer common/neutral used to power the controls.

Connect the “common/neutral” wire of the SECONDARY side of the transformer to earth ground – such as the ground screw on in the electrical box.


Note: Flipping 24 VAC HOT and COMMON will cause the BACnet MS/TP network to stop communicating!!! Ensure HOT and COMMON are not reversed on ANY controllers. (Warning: Controllers will still power up and run even if HOT and COMMON are reversed. However output signals to other devices such as heaters, relays, etc will not work as intended!)
