LG Smart Inverter Monitoring system 2.0
This manual describes how to install and
use the LG Smart Inverter Monitoring system (SIMs) 2.0, Model PSWMOZ3. SIMs consists of a hardware Wireless Local Area Network
(WLAN) module, an interface cable, and a free
application (app) for iOS and Android. The user must supply a smart phone, either an Apple iPhone or an Android phone. SIMs is not
optimized for tablets.
Before using SIMs, you must download and install the latest version of the free SIMs app from either the App store (iOS) or the Play Store (Android). Be sure to download the WLAN version of the app. There is also a Bluetooth version (LG SIMs 1.0 [Bluetooth
Only]) on the Play Store, but the Bluetooth version will not work
with this WLAN SIMs module. Be sure to download LG SIMs 2.0.
Figure 1 shows the SIMs app and SIMs WLAN module in a typical
DFS application. Table 1 lists SIMs smart phone requirements.
The SIMs WLAN module and the smartphone app together provide
monitoring and troubleshooting capability for LG duct-free systems
(DFS). SIMs functions only with LG DFS products.

Note:
Figure 1: SIMs WLAN Module to Typical DFS System
SIMs can display and graph operational data for the air conditioner system including the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. SIMs also
displays error codes and a troubleshooting guide.
To use SIMs you must be a trained HVAC service technician familiar with variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems in general and
with LG’s DFS products. You should understand the inverter air
conditioning operation cycle, the meaning of the data displayed by SIMs, and how to use the data to troubleshoot the system.
The DFS air conditioning system must run for at least 15–20 minutes before data collected by SIMs 2.0 is valid for troubleshooting.

LG SIMs 2.0
LG SIMs 2.0 Operating Considerations
• LG SIMs 2.0 processes data in real time. If other functions of the smart phone are used at the same time as SIMs, smart
phone resources may be insufcient for SIMs to process data or the SIMs connection may be disconnected. Please use the
product with this in mind. Always use a smart phone with at
least the minimum recommended specications.
• The SIMs application may unexpectedly end due to insufcient system resources.
• Transmission/reception data volume may increase according
to the number of indoor and outdoor units. SIMs response speed may be slower for some smart phone specications.
• Wireless transmission/reception distance may be reduced or communication may be disconnected due to the operational
environment (weather, electromagnetic interference or
physical obstacles).
• SIMs may not work correctly with rooted smart phones.
• As communication distance between the SIMs WLAN module and the smart phone increases, smart phone WLAN output may increase, causing greater drain on the smart phone
battery. During use, keep the smart phone as close as safely possible to the SIMs WLAN module.
