UC600 Pre-power Checks
To avoid equipment damage, a pre-power check for inputs and outputs is recommended before
applying power to the UC600.
Before applying power, check for the following:
• All thermistors; check for 10K by using a digital multimeter (DMM).
• Thumbwheels; range between 189 and 890
• Binary outputs; check for any dead shorts.
• Analog outputs; verify that AC voltage is not present and that the load does not have 24 VAC
or 120 VAC.
This section provides illustrations and methods of how to check the UC600 points before
connection has been made and power applied.The step numbers in each illustration correspond
to the information in each table. (Refer to Table 2, p. 7 for a list of device connections.)
Note: The illustrations in the section, “UC600 Commissioning/Troubleshooting in Powered State,”
p. 65 show the location of the UC600.

Wiring and Powering the UC600
This section describes how to wire and safely power the UC600.
Important: If problems occur after powering refer to the troubleshooting section, “UC600
Commissioning/Troubleshooting in Powered State,” p. 65.
Tip: Before powering the UC600, read sections, “UC600 Pre-power Checks,” p. 17 and “UC600
Power Budget Check in an Un-powered State,” p. 20.
CAUTION
Personal Injury and Equipment Damage!
After installation, verify that the 24 VAC transformer is grounded through the controller. Failure
to do so could result in personal injury and/or damage to equipment. Measure the voltage
between chassis ground and any ground terminal on the controller. Expected result: VAC 4.0 V.
Refer to the section, “Wiring AC Power to the UC600,” p. 24.
Notice:
Equipment Damage!
Complete input/output wiring before applying power to the UC600 controller. Failure to
complete this task may cause damage to the controller or power transformer due to inadvertent
connections to power circuits. The designed units accept only copper conductors. Other types
may cause equipment damage. Do not share 24 VAC between controllers. Sharing 24 VAC power
may cause controller damage (refer to the section, “Transformer Requirements,” p. 23).
22 BAS-SVX45C-EN
Wiring and Powering the UC600
Transformer Requirements
• AC transformer requirements: UL listed, Class 2 power transformer, 24 VAC ±15%, device max
load 26 VA.The transformer must be sized to provide adequate power to the UC600 controller
(26 VA) and any external device outputs.
• DC power can be used for 4-20 mA devices and up to two expansion modules (XM30, XM32)
and one WCI.
• Include in the total power budget any devices that are powered from the 24 VAC terminal.
• CE-compliant installations:The transformer must be CE marked and SELV compliant per IEC
standards.
A separate transformer is recommended for each controller.The line input to the transformer must
be equipped with a circuit breaker sized to manage the maximum transformer line current.
If a single transformer is shared by multiple UC600 controllers:
• The transformer must have sufficient capacity.
• Polarity must be maintained for every UC600 controller powered by the transformer
Important: If polarity is inadvertently reversed between controllers that are powered by the
same transformer, a difference of 24 VAC will occur between the grounds of each
controller.The following symptoms could result:
–Partial or full loss of communication on the entire BACnet MS/TP link.
–Improper function of UC600 controller outputs.
–Damage to the transformer or a blown transformer fuse.

Operation of the UC600
Troubleshooting
The section provides troubleshooting solutions for problems that sometimes occur with the
UC600.
Communication Problems
Problem:The UC600 is not communicating withTracer SC, but can communicate withTracerTU
using a direct USB connection.
Possible cause:The “Soft Set Device ID” check box was unchecked after the UC600 was installed
onto theTracer SC.
Possible solution: Reinstall the UC600 device onto theTracer SC.
1. Verify that the UC600 device ID is set to the rotary address, which is found in
TracerTU/controller/controller settings/protocol.
2. Log on toTracer SC and navigate to the Devices page; select the UC600 device from the list, then
select replace from the actions button.
Alternative cause:The baud rate changed in the controller settings.
Solution: InTracerTU, open the Controller Settings page. Set the baud rate to to match the baud
rate on theTracer SC MS/TP link.
Alternate Cause:The rotary switch is not set properly or another device on the same MS/TP link
is set to the same rotary address.
Solution: Verify that the rotary address is correct. If not, change the address and cycle power. If the
device was previously installed in theTracer SC, the device may need to be "replaced" from the
Tracer SC Devices page.
Alternate Solution: If the device is set to the proper rotary address, then another device(s) could
be using the same rotary address on the MS/TP link.
1. Power down the UC600 and discover the link withTracer SC to see if a duplicate device is
present.
2. Change address of duplicate device, then reapply power the UC600.
If previously installed, the device may need to be replaced in theTracer SC.
Output Points
Problem: Output points are not being controlled by the UC600.
Possible cause:The output point was not configured properly inTracerTU.
Solution: Verify the hardware configuration inTracerTU and change as needed.
Problem:The value of an analog point reads correctly inTracerTU but does not read correctly in
theTracer SC.
Solution:Verify that the dimensionality was set properly on the point configuration page ofTU. Log
on toTracer SC and navigate to the Devices page; select the UC600 device from the list, then select
replace from the actions button.
Alternate solution: Verify that the equipment template is pointing to the proper output point in the
UC600.
Problem:The output point is out of service.
Solution: Place point in service from eitherTracerTU orTracer SC.

UC600 Commissioning/Troubleshooting in Powered State
Open-collector based binary sensors use a bipolar junction transistor (BJT).This is a three-
terminal device in which emitter-to-collector current is controlled by base current as the
switching device in place of a relay.The term, open-collector, refers to the collector connection
on the transistor itself. Open-collector circuits are used for their low fatigue rate and quick
response relative to relay-based outputs.
The circuit within the pulse meter is completed when adding a pull-up resistance and reference
voltage. On the UC600, both universal input (UI) and analog output (AO) circuits add the
necessary resistance and voltage without external parts.
Note: The reference voltage must always be DC.
The voltage across the pulse meter terminals will bounce between Vsat (saturation voltage) of
the transistor in the pulse meter and theVref (reference voltage) provided by the UI or AO circuits
of the UC600. Most bipolar transistors have a Vsat of less than 0.2 Vdc.
The DMM sampling rate may be too slow to measure pulse meter output transitions.
Note: Check the specifications of the DMM. It may be necessary to use an oscilloscope to
measure the transition voltages.
