Product description General presentation The PIC is the gateway to allow communication between a TRANE equipment and a BMS (Building Management Systems) vendor through the Modbus protocol over a RS232 or a RS-485 link. The PIC handles Modbus RTU according to Reference Guide: Modicon PI-MBUS-300 Rev.
EMC disturbance risks. • Verify that the location conforms to the specifications below. • Secure the controller to a 35 mm DIN rail (Use only 10/10 mm thickness sheet) or directly mount the PIC using four M3 screws (not supplied). RJ-45 COMM3...

Step 2: Validate the PIC configuration Once the PIC is configured and wired to Trane equipment, the configuration has to be validated. The PIC service pin has to be pressed for at least 15 seconds. That will save the configuration and reset the PIC. RJ-45...
Operation The PIC is now in a stand-by sequence, waiting for a Trane equipment to be identified. Step 3: Initiate communication between the PIC and Trane Equipment Once the PIC is in 'waiting' status, the existing Trane Equipment has to identify itself to the PIC by pressing once the Trane equipment service pin (See the Installation section for a more detailed view of the equipment service pin).
