Troubleshooting Tips

Indication App Will Not Accept New User Account
Bluetooth Adaptor LED is OFF
Bluetooth Adaptor LED is flashing Red
Erratic number updates or bad data
App will not connect
App will not connect to Sage Controller

Possible Cause Cell signal not available.
Cables not connected properly.
Wrong Cable. Boiler is not powered.
Sage Control Fail to Connect.
Failed Cable or connection. Bad connection.
Bad connection. More than one (1) Bluetooth Adaptor is powered. Failed to close & reopen App after connection to different Bluetooth Adaptor. Sage Controller greater than 10 years old.
Sage Controller with multiple boilers in a peer-to-peer network.

Corrective Action App requires a cell signal to accept a new user profile. User can log in without cell signal after initial acceptance. Sage Controller: Cable 2, connections to boiler are reverse. Switch RJ45 connections, see page 5.
Alta Controller: Cable 1 is not connected. Cable 1 is connected to the Bluetooth Adaptor center connection, should be to the right side connection, see page 5. Cable 1, 2 and 3 must be "straight through" cables. Power up boiler. Sage Slave Address is not set to 1, Panasonic Status screen should show "Boiler 1". If not, go to Panasonic display/Adjust Menu/Sequencer Slave and adjust Boiler Address to 1. Cycle power to Bluetooth adaptor. Wiring to Boiler RJ45 boiler connection are disconnected. To fix this use: "CST Sage J3 Terminals to RJ45 Interface Board", PN: 111640-01, see page 5. Check cables and cable connections. Replace cables if necessary. Reboot Bluetooth Adaptor and open App after Bluetooth Adaptor LED has turned green. Reboot Bluetooth Adaptor and open App after Bluetooth Adaptor LED has turned green.
App can only connect to one Bluetooth Adaptor. When more than one (1) are available the App will connect to neither.
When two Bluetooth Adaptors are on site, close App and reopen when connecting to next Bluetooth Adaptor.
Sage controllers older than 2012 (revision 1967, 3212 and 3220) are not compatible with the App. When connecting boilers arranged in Sage Controller equipped Boiler peer-to-peer network the Sequencer Master must be disabled. To keep the Sequence Master enabled, connect the CST directly to the Sage Controller using "CST Sage J3 Terminals to RJ45 Interface Board", PN: 111640-01, (see page 5) and MB1 terminals. Alta Controller does not have this issue.
