Troubleshooting Tips

Indication Possible Cause Corrective Action
App Will Not Accept New User Account Cell signal not available. App requires

a cell signal to accept a new user profile. User can log in without cell signal after initial acceptance.
Bluetooth Adaptor LED is OFF| Cables not connected properly.|

  • Sage Controller: Cable 2, connections to boiler are reverse. Switch RJ45 connections, see page 5.
  • GHE II 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.

Wrong Cable.| Cable 1, 2 and 3 must be “straight through” cables.
Boiler is not powered.| Power up boiler.
Bluetooth Adaptor
LED is flashing Red| Sage Control Fail to Connect.| 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.
Failed Cable or connection.| Check cables and cable connections. Replace cables if necessary.
Erratic number updates or bad data| Bad connection.| Reboot Bluetooth Adaptor and open App after Bluetooth Adaptor LED has turned green.
**** App will not connect| Bad connection.| Reboot Bluetooth Adaptor and open App after Bluetooth Adaptor LED has turned green.
More than one (1) Bluetooth Adaptor is powered.| App can only connect to one Bluetooth Adaptor. When more than one (1) are available the App will connect to neither.
Failed to close & reopen App after connection to different Bluetooth Adaptor.| When two Bluetooth Adaptors are on site, close App and reopen when connecting to next Bluetooth Adaptor.
App will not connect to Sage Controller| Sage Controller greater than 10 years old.| Sage controllers older than 2012 (revision 1967, 3212 and 3220) are not compatible with the App.
Sage Controller with multiple boilers in a peer-to-peer network.| 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. GHE II Controller does not have this issue.
