Do you have access to the Tracer front end? If you do then its easy to change setpoints. User Name = Tracer, Password = Summit. And further, whats terminated on 1 and 2? Sounds like there should be a zone sensor somewhere that sees the space temperature to switch it between heat and cool mode.

If you mean a standard 5 wire stat, No. If you have Trane sensor/stat then yes.
Anything I say here is only my opinion. Even if you understood what I said.... What I said may not even be what I meant.

If Its ReliaTel then it can use a standard 5 wire stat. However if its on the Tracer network it would lose some functionality by doing that. You should maybe put your focus toward correctly repairing what is already there. Maybe start by ohming out the sensor and comparing it to the space temperature. You will need the book for troubleshooting the ReliaTel microprocessor controls to get the proper resistance values. (The literature order # is RT-SVD03D-EN, availiable from a local Trane office). It also can be checked by D.C. voltage vs. zone temp while connected. Then you can check the values in Tracer and see if they match. With the RTU selected and in setpoint view you can see the occupied heating and cooling values and make changes. You can also adjust the offset if you find that the zone sensor is slightly out of calibration. Of course location of zone sensor can play a role. You said service call for too hot. Are you sure the cooling is working? On the inside of the panel where the controls are youll find instructions about how to "step test" the unit. This way you can test all the RTU functions and begin troubleshooting from there.
