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 requires 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.

UCM 4.2 can be configured to control non-Trane VAV
boxes.

Shipping
Each VAV product and its service literature are shipped in
the same package. When unpacking, make sure that the
literature is not lost or discarded with the packing material.
Visually inspect the individual components for obvious
defects or damage. All components are thoroughly
inspected before leaving the factory. Any claims for
damage incurred during shipment must be filed with the
carrier.

Storage
When any component of the VAV system and/or field
installed accessories must be stored for a period of time
prior to being installed, they must be protected from the
elements.The storage location temperature should be
between -40° to 150°F (-40° to 65.6°C) and the relative
humidity should be 10% to 90%, non-condensing.
The warranty will not cover damage to the VAV system or
controls due to negligence during storage. A controlled
indoor environment must be used for storage.

• Check the supply voltage atTB1. Proper polarity must
be maintained.TB1-1 is the hot side (+) andTB1-2 is the
ground side (-) of the 24VAC input.The UCM cannot be
powered from a common 24 VAC transformer that is
supplying power to a device containing a full-wave
rectifier bridge in its power supply.The acceptable
voltage is 20 to 28 VAC (24 VAC cataloged). However,
voltages at either extreme may result in increased
system instability.
• Verify that communications wiring has properly been
terminated atTB2-1 (+) andTB2-2 (-). Polarity is very
important on the communications link.
• Verify that the zone sensor connections are correct as
detailed in the UCM wiring chapter.
• Verify that the proper unit DIP switch settings have
been set on each UCM.
• Verify that the tubing is properly connected to the
transducer.

Light Emitting Diode (LED)


Operations
The UCM has one green LED located nearTB3 and one
yellow LED located nearTB2 on the UCM circuit board.
These LED’s are used to help diagnose communication
(yellow) or circuit board problems (green).
The green LED (red on older boards) is a power indicator.
It is steady on when the power is on and the software is
functioning correctly. If it blinks with a 1 second on 1
second off cycle when power is applied, then the board is
not functioning and must be replaced.

VAV Start Up/Check Out Procedure

Zone Sensor Check-out


If an erroneous temperature is being reported to the UCM,
use the “Zone sensor temperature-resistance table,” p. 10
to verify the integrity of the adjustable set point
potentiometer or sensor.The resistance should be
measured across the terminals to which the device is
connected.
Note: Disconnect the zone sensor from the UCM when
making the checks listed in the table below.

1. Using a small screwdriver, set the three rotary address
switches (locations S1, S2, S3) on the sensor (Figure 8,
p. 19) to the same address used for the receiver it is to
be associated with.
2. Make a notation of the address and location where this

Replacing and Securing the Receiver


Cover Figure 11. LED5 stays on after applying power to the
receiver
1. To replace the receiver cover on the base plate, hook
the cover over the top of the base plate. Apply light
pressure to the bottom of the cover until it snaps in
place.
2. If necessary to keep the cover securely attached, install
the security screw into the bottom of the receiver
(Figure 10, p. 22).

LED5 stays constantly On

Receiver Indicates Readiness to Associate


After initial power up, the receiver conducts a channel scan
for 10 seconds. During this time, the receiver selects from
16 available channels the clearest channel on which to
operate. LED1, LED2, and LED3 flash rapidly in succession
(round-robin style) while the channel scan is in progress.
Note: Do not attempt association until the channel scan is
finished. After the channel scan is finished, LED3
will begin blinking (one-blink pattern) to show that
the receiver is ready to be associated with a sensor.
Security screw LED3 will stop blinking when association has been
established (Figure 12, p. 22).
