SAFETY WARNING
Only qualified personnel should install and service the equipment. The installation, starting up, and servicing of heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning equipment can be hazardous and require specific knowledge and training. Improperly installed, adjusted or altered equipment by an unqualified person could result in death or serious injury. When working on the equipment, observe all precautions in the literature and on the tags, stickers, and labels that are attached to the equipment.
Warnings, Cautions, and Notices
Read this manual thoroughly before operating or servicing this unit. Safety advisories appear throughout this manual as required. Your safety andthe proper operation of this machine depends upon the strict observance of these precautions.
The three types of advisories are defined as follows:
WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
It could also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
NOTICE Indicates a situation that could result in equipment or property damage only accidents.
Important Environmental Concerns
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made chemicals can affect the earth’s naturally occurring stratospheric ozone layer when released to the atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants that contain Chlorine, Fluorine, and Carbon (CFCs) and those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing these compounds have the same potential impact to the environment. Trane advocates the responsible handling of all refrigerants.
Important Responsible Refrigerant Practices
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are important to the environment, our customers, and the air conditioning industry. All technicians who handle refrigerants must be certified according to local rules. For the USA, the Federal Clean Air Act (Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling, reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these service procedures. In addition, some states or municipalities may have additional requirements that must also be adhered to for responsible management of refrigerants. Know the applicable laws and follow them.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding Required!
Failure to follow the code could result in death or serious injury. All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding as described in NEC and your local/state/national electrical codes.
WARNING
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Required!
Failure to wear proper PPE for the job being undertaken could result in death or serious injury. Technicians, to protect themselves from potential electrical, mechanical, and chemical hazards, MUST follow precautions in this manual and on the tags, stickers, and labels, as well as the instructions below:
- Before installing/servicing this unit, technicians MUST put on all PPE required for the work being undertaken (Examples; cut-resistant gloves/sleeves, butyl gloves, safety glasses, hard hat/bump cap, fall protection, electrical PPE and arc flash clothing).
- ALWAYS refer to appropriate Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and OSHA guidelines for proper PPE.
- When working with or around hazardous chemicals, ALWAYS refer to the appropriate SDS and OSHA/GHS (Global Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals) guidelines for information on allowable personal exposure levels, proper respiratory protection, and handling instructions.
- If there is a risk of energized electrical contact, arc, or flash, technicians MUST put on all PPE under OSHA, NFPA 70E, or other country-specific requirements for arc flash protection, before servicing the unit.
- NEVER PERFORM ANY SWITCHING, DISCONNECTING, OR VOLTAGE TESTING WITHOUT PROPER ELECTRICAL PPE AND ARC FLASH CLOTHING. ENSURE ELECTRICAL METERS AND EQUIPMENT ARE PROPERLY RATED FOR INTENDED VOLTAGE.
WARNING
Follow EHS Policies!
- Failure to follow the instructions below could result in death or serious injury.
- All Trane personnel must follow the company’s Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) policies when performing work such as hot work, electrical, fall protection, lockout/tagout, refrigerant handling, etc. Where local regulations are more stringent than these policies, those regulations supersede these policies.
- Non-rane personnel should always follow local regulations.
NOTICE
Risk of Battery Exploding!
Failure to follow the instructions below could cause the battery to explode resulting in equipment damage. Do NOT use a non-compatible battery with the controller! A compatible battery must be used.

Tracer® SC+ DC Power Budget
Depending on the power source, Tracer® SC+ has a maximum current available for peripheral devices. Perform a power budget if you have more than 3 external devices connected through the IMC.
AC powered
- The preferred power method is to provide 24 Vac from a transformer.
- Using the values from Table 2, add together the current draw for all the components connected to the SC+. If the sum exceeds 600mA, use a PM014 module or a plug-in power supply.
Tracer® plug-in power supply
- Using the values from Table 2, add together the current draw for all the components connected to the SC+. The sum cannot exceed 0.75A. If the sum exceeds 750mA, use a PM014 module.
PM014 powered
- Using the values from Table 2, add together the power draw for all the components connected to the SC+. The sum cannot exceed the 1.4A.
Transformer (Preferred Method)
This procedure involves wiring 24Vac to the XFMR pins of the 4-position terminal block on the Tracer® SC+ controller. See Figure 3 for details.
- Using the provided 4-position terminal block, wire the 24 Vac input connection of the Tracer SC+ to a dedicated 24 Vac, Class 2 transformer.
- Ensure that the Tracer SC+ is properly grounded.
Important: This device must be grounded for proper operation! The factory-supplied ground wire must be connected from any chassis ground connection on the device to an appropriate earth ground. The chassis ground connection can be the 24 Vac transformer input at the device, or any other chassis ground connection on the device.
Note: The Tracer SC+ is NOT grounded through the DIN rail connection. - Apply power to the Tracer SC+ by pressing the power button. All status LEDs illuminate and the following sequence flashes on the 7-segment display: 8, 7, 5, 4, L, dancing dash pattern. The dancing dashes continue while the Tracer SC+ is operating normally.
Tracer® Plug-in Power Supply with Single Barrel Connector
- Connect the power supply to a standard power receptacle, such as a wall outlet.
- Connect the barrel end of the power supply to the 24 Vdc input of the Tracer® SC+.
- Ensure that the Tracer SC+ is properly grounded.
Important: This device must be grounded for proper operation! The factory-supplied ground wire must be connected from any chassis ground connection on the device to an appropriate earth ground.
Note: The Trace SC+ is NOT grounded through the DIN rail connection. - Apply power to the Tracer SC+ by pressing the power button. All status LEDs illuminate and the following sequence flashes on the 7-segment display: 8, 7, 5, 4, L, dancing dash pattern. The dancing dashes continue while the Tracer SC+ is operating normally.
PM014 Power Supply Module through IMC Bus
This procedure involves connecting the SC+ to the PM014 power supply using an IMC cable. See Figure 4 for details.
Note: For complete instructions and more information, refer to the Power Supply Module PM014 Installation, Operation, and Maintenance (BAS-SVX33*-EN).
- Connect one end of the provided IMC power cable to the IMC connection on the Tracer® SC+. Connect the other end of the IMC power cable to the IMC connection on the power supply module.
- Wire the 24 Vac input connection on the PM014 power supply to a dedicated Class 2 transformer.
- Ensure that the Tracer SC+ and the PM014 power supply are properly grounded through the DIN rail connection.
Important: This device must be grounded for proper operation! The factory supplied ground wire must be connected from any chassis ground connection on the device to an appropriate earth ground. The chassis ground connection can be the 24 Vac transformer input at the device or any other chassis ground connection on the device.
