Be sure that the Modbus Type is RTU over TCP Figure 1 Refer to Chromalox Installation Manual PK497 for complete Panel setup instructions. Planning Your IntelliTRACE System Take the time to properly plan your system. In addition to the communication details for each “panel”, you will need to organize your circuits into groups which make sense for your facility. -
Page 11: Construct Your Intellitrace System
Construct Your IntelliTRACE System After you have initiated the intelliTRACE Panel Network as instructed above, you may now take the proper steps to begin to add Individual intel- liTRACE panels to your system. They will appear in the System Tree Pane on the left as well as in the Panel List on the right. -

Page 13: Connecting Systems
To program, edit or monitor a System (Panel) that you have successfully added to your intelliTRACE network, you must first Connect to this System. There are three ways to have the intelliTRACE Supervisory Controller connect to your Panel (System) network: 1. -
Page 14: Programming & Editing
Programming & Editing To program or edit circuits, select the SETUP button at the bottom, left side of the Main Screen. You will be presented with the Setup Form. See Figure 9. Setpoints Tab The Setpoints Tab contains input cells for the following Settings for Each Loop: See Figure 10. -

Synchronize Settings The intelliTRACE Supervisory Controller also offers a feature which allows the user to apply the settings from one system (panel) to any or all of the remaining systems (panels) on the network. Press the Sync button at the bottom of the Main Screen to reveal the Sync Form. -
Page 17: Tuning Tab
Tuning Tab The owner has a choice on what type of Control Mode or how the output is to be operated: Auto, Manual or Off. These selections are made within the Setpoints Tab. If “AUTO” or Automatic Control Operation is desired, then the Tuning of the Automatic Control is accomplished via the Tuning Tab. -
Page 18: Soft Start Feature
I/O (Sensor & Output) Mapping Tab The intelliTRACE Supervisory controller will facilitate the customizable I/O Mapping feature found on the ITLS & ITLSC1D2 type Heat Trace panels. This is only available if the I/O Mapping feature on the panels themselves is enabled. - Page 19 Multiple Sensor Mapping A single sensor may be used independently or combined with other sensors to control more than one circuit. For Example: The average temperature of Sensors 1, 3 & 5 is used to control Circuit 1 while simultaneously the maximum Temperature of Sensor 3, 4 &...

Page 20: Output Mapping
Output Mapping Output Power Sensing A single Output demand value may be mapped to multiple Circuits. This allows several circuits to be controlled by a single Output demand value. Minimum, Maximum, Averaging Several Output demand values may be mapped to a single output circuit. This allows that circuit to be controlled by the Minimum or the Maximum or the Average Output demand value of all of the Outputs that are mapped to that single Circuit. -
Page 21: System Tab
System Tab Several informative items and general settings are available within the System Tab. Here, one can enter/revise the Facility Name, Temperature Units, AutoCycle Interval & Number of Current Samples. See Figure 16. The System Tab is only available to Manager and Engineer security levels. Figure 16 AutoCycle During prolonged down time periods, typically during the summer months, it advisable to intermittently exercise... -
Page 22: Number Of Current Samples
Number of Current Samples The intelliTRACE Supervisory controller has an adjustable current sampling rate. A sample (or survey) of the cur- rent load and ground fault load on one circuit is made every 250 milliseconds. The Current Load is the average of the collected samples. - Page 23 • Send Report Every: (Report Frequency) – How often shall the event log report be sent? Alarm Behavior • Use audible sound when alarm occurs – When engaged, an audible beep will occur at the intelliTRACE Supervisory Controller. • Send email when alarm occurs – when selected, an email will be sent to the provided address when an alarm event occurs.

Page 24: Event (Alarm) Log
Event (Alarm) Log The purpose of Event Log is to capture every alarm type and its condition with a date and time stamp. This log is itemized in the Log Form, which is revealed when the LOGS button at the bottom of the Main Screen is selected. See Figure 18. -
Page 25: Faults (Alarms)
Faults (Alarms) Faults within any 6 Circuit or Loop grouping are indicted by RED rectangles in the Left and Right panels on any screen. If the rectangle is GREEN, then no faults exist within that 6 Circuit grouping. Once a fault is realized within any 6 Loop grouping, one may view the individual fault loop or loops in two different ways: 1. -
