.

It connects to the indoor or outdoor unit control PCB via a dedicated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) adapter, linking to the AIRSTAGE Service Monitor mobile app (iOS or Android).


2. Required Equipment

To use the tool, you will need:

  • A smart device (Android or iPhone) with the AIRSTAGE Service Monitor Tool app installed.

  • The BLE communication adapter (UTY-ASSXZ1).

  • A USB cable for the adapter.

  • Power to the indoor or outdoor unit’s control PCB

  2. Initial Permissions

    • Allow the app to use Location Info and Device Detection; the app will not function without these permissions.

    • Accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

    • Once opened, the app displays the LIST screen, ready for connection.


4. Connecting the BLE Adapter

  1. Power Down the System

    • Turn off power to the outdoor unit using the isolation switch or circuit breaker.

  2. Connect the BLE Adapter

    • Plug the adapter into the “FLASH” connector on the outdoor PCB using the correct cable type:

      • Type 1: PA connector – 6 pin

      • Type 2: PA connector – 10 pin

      • Type 3: PA connector – 12 pin

  3. Restore Power

    • Power the unit back on; the adapter’s LED lamp should blink rapidly (twice every 4 seconds), confirming power.

  4. Pairing

    • Open the app and tap Bluetooth Connection.

    • Select the detected device and tap Connect.

    • When the pairing is complete, the connection bar turns green, and the LED changes to solid light

⚠️ Safety Note:
Do not plug or unplug the adapter with power applied. Avoid moisture or metal contact to prevent short circuits.


5. Main App Functions

The app’s bottom toolbar includes:

  • List Button – Displays real-time data.

  • Chart Button – Graphs parameters such as pressure and compressor speed.

  • Refrigeration Cycle Button – Shows refrigerant flow and temperature diagram.

  • Settings Button – Access units, date format, and firmware update options.


6. Monitoring Modes

ModeDescription
Monitoring ModeDisplays live system data such as pressures, fan speed, and temperatures in real-time.
Recording ModeLogs system data and records data immediately before errors occur (up to 5 error types).
  • Default mode: Monitoring Mode

  • Switch modes using the toggle at the top of the LIST screen.


7. Recording Data

Duration and Interval

  • Recording interval: 1 to 60 seconds (default 5 seconds).

  • Example: At 5-second intervals, total recording time is approximately 9.2 minutes

Error Recording

  • Up to 5 error types can be stored.

  • If the same error occurs multiple times, only the latest event is saved, while the count of occurrences increases.

Saving Data

  • Tap SAVE to store data on the smart device.

  • Default file name format: HIST_YYYY-MM-DD_hhmmss.

  • Files can be renamed and exported (via email, Bluetooth, etc.).


8. Viewing and Loading Data

To Save Live Data

  1. Tap SAVE while connected.

  2. Confirm or rename the file.

  3. Data is stored on the mobile device.

To Load Saved Data

  1. Disconnect Bluetooth.

  2. Tap LOAD.

  3. Select a saved file (HST format).

  4. The data will reload into the LIST view for analysis.


9. Chart Display

  • Tap Chart Display to visualize operational data.

  • Up to three charts can be displayed simultaneously.

  • Select the desired item (e.g., compressor speed, discharge temperature).

  • Choose Y-axis units such as °C/°F or MPa/psi.

  • Enable Auto Update to show the latest 10 minutes of data in real-time.


10. Refrigeration Cycle Display

The Cycle screen shows a graphical layout of:

  • Outdoor Unit Data: pressures, discharge temperatures, etc.

  • Indoor Unit Data: inlet/outlet temperatures, setpoint, and operation mode.
    This helps visualize refrigerant flow and component temperatures for system diagnosis.


11. Settings and Updates

  • Access via Settings Button (⚙️).

  • Change display units (°C/°F, MPa/psi).

  • Adjust date format (regional preference).

  • Firmware Update:

    • When available, a pop-up prompts “Firmware Update Available.”

    • Tap “Firmware Update” → “Yes” → Wait until progress reaches 100% → Tap “Close.”


12. Bluetooth Connection Range

  • Effective range: up to 10 meters (approx.).

  • Walls or metal obstacles can reduce signal strength.

  • If the app displays “Weak Signal,” move closer to the BLE adapter.


13. Installation Notes

  • Install the BLE adapter securely inside the outdoor unit chassis using:

    • Double-sided tape

    • Velcro

    • Magnetic pads

  • Avoid contact with metallic surfaces near high-voltage components.


14. Display Terminology Reference

The tool uses abbreviated item names across different display modes.

15. Best Practices

✅ Always connect and disconnect the BLE adapter with power off.
✅ Ensure good Bluetooth range for uninterrupted logging.
✅ Regularly update the app and BLE firmware to maintain compatibility.
✅ Save recorded data before closing the app — unsaved data will be lost.
