Analog inputs for heat pump
applications
The Tracer ZN517 controller has five analog inputs. Table 19 describes
the function of each input for heat pump applications. Each function is
explained in the succeeding paragraphs. For an explanation of the diag-
nostics generated by each analog input, see “Table of diagnostics” on
page 79. For more information about how the controller operates, see
Chapter 8, “Sequence of operations for the heat pump configuration”.
AI1: Universal 4–20 mA
The AI1 analog input can be configured in one of the three ways shown in
Table 20.
If this input is not needed for an application, configure it as Not Used.
This disables the generation of diagnostics.
For the generic input configuration, a 4–20 mA sensor must be hard-
wired to the AI1 terminal. (Wiring is dependent on the specific applica-
