Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 PLASMA System Bedienungsanleitung Seite 6

2. Principles of Operation
The System consists of an Airbag Control Unit (5) with built-in sensors (Figure 1). The cluster
of sensors of the Airbag Control Unit (5) consists of 1 tri-axial accelerometer and 1 tri-axial
gyroscope positioned inside the Back Protector (4). These sensors monitor the User's body
for shocks or unexpected movements. In the event the User's body is subject to a high and/
or sudden amount of energy, the System will deploy. This may occur when the motorcycle is
involved in an accident, such as when the motorcycle collides with another vehicle or with
an object, when the rider loses control or when the rider falls off the motorcycle.
The System is equipped with a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device located in the Electronic
Control Unit (ECU). The BLE allows the System to connect directly to a mobile phone in
order to receive important information from the System, while also permitting the Users to
access a number of other functions (for further information, see Section 10 "Tech-Air
The System does NOT need to be connected to the Tech-Air

To connect the System to the mobile phone via Bluetooth, remember to
activate the Bluetooth functionality within your phone Settings and to

Users must always check the App to ensure that the System is running
the most up-to-date software release on their Airbag System. When a new
software update is released, the User will receive a Tech-Air
App.
