Unit diagnostics can affect the Tracer

ZN.520 controller operation,

causing unit operation to be defined as abnormal. Refer to the

Troubleshooting section for more information about abnormal unit

operation.

The heating output is controlled based on the heating capacity. At 0%

capacity, the heating output is off continuously. Between 0 and 100%

capacity, the heating output is controlled according to modulating

valve logic (modulating valves) or cycled on (2-position valves). As the

load increases, modulating outputs open further and binary outputs

are energized longer. At 100% capacity, the heating valve is fully open

(modulating valves) or on continuously (2-position valves).

The Tracer

®

ZN.520 fan output(s) normally run continuously during the

occupied and occupied standby modes, but cycle between high and

off speeds with heating/cooling during the unoccupied mode. When in

the occupied mode or occupied standby mode and the fan speed is

set at the high, medium, or low position, the fan runs continuously at

the selected speed. Refer to the Troubleshooting section for more

information on abnormal fan operation.

When the unit’s supply fan is set to auto, the controller’s configura-

tion determines the fan speed when in the occupied mode or occu-

pied standby mode. The fan runs continuously at the configured

heating fan speed or cooling fan speed. For all fan speed selections

except off, the fan cycles off during unoccupied mode.

The economizer outdoor air damper is never used as a source of

heating. Instead, the economizer damper (when present) is only used

for ventilation; therefore, the damper is at the occupied minimum

position in the occupied mode. The damper control is primarily

associated with occupied fan operation.

For multiple fan speed applications, the Tracer

®

ZN.520 controller

offers additional fan configuration flexibility. Separate default fan

speeds for heating and cooling modes can be configured. The fan

runs continuously for requested speeds (off, high, medium, or low).

When the fan mode switch is in the Auto position or a hardwired fan

mode input does not exist, the fan operates at the default configured

speed. See Table 21 on page 67 for default fan configuration for heat

and cool mode. During unoccupied mode, the fan cycles between

high speed and off with heating and cooling fan modes. If the re-

quested speed is off, the fan always remains off.

During dehumidification, when the fan is on Auto, the fan speed can
