Graphical programming
The Tracer graphical programming (TGP)
editor, shown in Figure 5 on page 7,
eliminates the need for line-by-line
programming. The TGP editor is a
software component of the Trane Rover
service tool. TGP has the following
advantages:
Easy to learn—programming is as
easy as assembling logic blocks with a
computer mouse, much like creating a
flow chart.
Powerful—the TGP editor has built-in
PID functions and more than 50 logic
blocks for building programs.
Self documenting—programs can be
printed and used as pictorial represen-
tations of sequences of operation (see
Figure 6 on page 7).
Programs are stored in the controller
along with their graphical representa-
tion, and can be uploaded, viewed,
and re-used.
Offline programming—configuration
and TGP programming can be done
without connecting to a Tracer
MP580/581 controller.
Program simulation—programmers
can simulate TGP programs offline.
The programmer can verify, test, and
troubleshoot controller operation at a
remote location, simplifying setup,
maintenance, and service.
Operator display
The optional operator-display touch
screen is an intuitive operator interface
for monitoring and changing building
control functions. With the operator
display, you can:
Monitor space temperature, relative
humidity, and other variables
Change setpoints and scheduled
occupancy times
Identify and troubleshoot problems
View and reset controller alarms
Manually override outputs
The operator display includes a 7-day
time clock that gives Tracer MP580/581
controllers the ability to manage time-of-
day scheduling, with two on/off times
per day and up to 20 exception
schedules per year.
Figure 2 on page 5 illustrates the
operator-display models available for
Tracer MP580/581 controllers.
Figure 4 shows a typical operator display
screen.

Engineered smoke control
Tracer MP580/581 controllers and EX2
expansion modules can be used to
control an engineered smoke control
system. When used with a fire alarm
control panel (provided by other
suppliers), the smoke-control system
can help protect occupants by
controlling the flow of smoke during a
fire.
In addition to smoke control, with a
firefighter’s control panel, a firefighter
can see the status of smoke control and
implement overrides as required. The
Tracer MP580/581 and EX2 expansion
module are UL-864-UUKL-listed for this
application. For details, see the
Engineered Smoke Control System for
Tracer Summit applications guide, BAS-
APG001-EN.
Interoperability
Tracer MP580/581 controllers
communicate by means of the LonTalk
protocol. The controllers can be
configured to conform to the LonMark
®
Space Comfort Controller (SCC) profile
or the Discharge Air Controller (DAC)
profile. You can integrate Tracer MP580/
581 controllers with any control system
that supports these LonTalk protocols
and FTT10-A communications.
Security
You can use up to eight security
passwords to limit access to a Tracer
MP580/581 controller.
Use the security passwords to prevent
unauthorized access to:
TGP programs stored in the controller
Operator display functions, such as
setpoints and schedules
Configuration downloads from a
LonTalk service tool
For each of the security passwords, you
can choose what can and cannot be
accessed, including specific screens on
the operator display. The controller ships
with security disabled.
