ComfortBridge two-stage outdoor

1/2 data — or 24V Y1/Y2

1/2 data — or 24V Y1/Y2

Goodman GSXC / Amana ASXC class. Talks ComfortBridge on 1 and 2 when the indoor is GMVC / AMVC / AVPTC. On a 9-speed 24V indoor it is just Y1/Y2.

Written circuit description only — FieldBench does not redraw maker schematics. Example: R to W closes on a heat call; verify 24V at W1 before you change the IFC.

    ~24 VAC. Data wire is a miswire.

Prove it

  • Identify the indoor first. Communicating indoor = 1/2. 24V indoor = Y1/Y2.
  • Comm faults are invalid on a 24V hookup.

Do not

  • Do not land data wire on a GR9T96 / AR9T96 / GR9S96.
  • Do not apply this to GSX16 / GLXS4B or GXV9S / AXV9S.

1 and 2 are the published ComfortBridge pair.
