Features and Benefits
packages to minimize custom
programming requirements and
enable system setup and control
through simple editing of parameters
in the standard applications software.
When selecting an Integrated
Comfort system for a facility, the
accountability for equipment,
automation and controls is Trane's,
Trane's, and Trane's!
In addition to high quality, high
performance, packaged air handler,
Trane provides precise air delivery
management with VariTrane VAV
terminals.
Wireless zone sensors minimize the
installation costs of the VariTrane
terminals and the packaged air
handler system in general.
The IntelliPak™ II air handler, as a
part of an Integrated Comfort system,
provides powerful maintenance
monitoring, control and reporting
capabilities. The Tracer places the air
handler in the appropriate operating
mode for: system on/off, night
setback, demand limiting, setpoint
adjustment based on outside
parameters and much more.
Many different unit diagnostic
conditions can be monitored through
Tracer: sensor failures and loss of
supply airflow. Further, the addition
of Building Management Network
software offers remote scanning,
automatic receipt of alarms, and easy
dial-up access to over 100 various
Tracer sites across town or across the
country.

Interoperability
Trane Tracer LonTalk Control
Interface (LCI) for IntelliPak II offers a
building automation control system
with outstanding interoperability
benefits.
LonTalk, which is an industry
standard, is an open, secure and
reliable network communication
protocol for controls, created by
Echelon Corporation and adopted by
the LonMark Interoperability
Association. It has been adopted by
several standards, such as: EIA-709.1,
the Electronic Industries Alliance
(EIA) Control Network Protocol
Specification and ANSI/ASHRAE 135,
part of the American Society of
Heating, Refrigeration, and Air
Conditioning Engineer's BACnet
control standard for buildings.
Interoperability allows application or
project engineers to specify the best
products of a given type, rather than
one individual supplier's entire
system. It reduces product training
and installation costs by
standardizing communications
across products. Interoperable
systems allow building managers to
monitor and control IntelliPak II
equipment with a Trane Tracer
Summit or a 3rd party building
automation system.
It enables integration with many
different building controls such as
access/intrusion monitoring, lighting,
fire and smoke devices, energy
management, and a wide variety of
sensors (temperature, pressure,
light, humidity, occupancy, CO
2
and
air velocity). For more information on

Optimum Building
Comfort Control
The modular control design of the
UCM allows for greater application
flexibility. Customers can order
exactly the options required for the
job, rather than one large control
package. Unit features are distributed
among multiple field replaceable
printed circuit boards. The Trane
UCM can be setup to operate under
one of three control applications:
