5.6.8 Selecting a new Vehicle Profile Definition

If the vehicle profile definition changes, for example, in the event of converting from a rear dually-
wheel axle to single, wide-base tires; this option gives access to change the number of axles
used on the vehicle and the amount of tires mounted per axle.

1. Enter the Setup Mode using the steps outlined in section 5.6.

2. When in the Setup Mode, press the left button until “Profile Definition” is highlighted.

Then press the right button to select the function.

3. Select the number of axles required for the vehicle profile by

pressing the left button. Press the right button after selecting the
number of axles to gain access to the axle definition screen.

4. Using the left button, select the axle that needs to be defined as a

single, dually or spare tire axle. Press the right button to open the
axle profile screen.

5. Press the left button to toggle the axle profile option from single to

dually or S for Spare. Once you have selected the required axle
profile, press the center button to save your selection and return to
the axle selection screen.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5, until all axles have been given a profile.

Press the center button to exit the axle selection screen. This will
prompt the “Ready to Learn All Tires?” confirmation screen. Press
the left button to select ‘Yes’ or press the right button to select ‘No’.
If ‘No’ is selected, the profile will remain unchanged from the
original and any button can be pressed again to exit to the Setup
menu.

7. If ‘Yes’ is selected in step 6, the “Overwrite Existing Profile?”

screen is entered. Pressing the left button for ‘No’ will exit the
Vehicle Profile Definition mode, with no changes to the current
profile. Press any button after the notice appears, to exit back to
the Setup menu. Pressing the right button for ‘Yes’ will initialize the
new profile and erase all previous axle and wheel combinations.
This process can take several minutes and the display will prompt
not to cycle power for the system during this time.

8. The display will now enter the Walk Around Learn Mode for the

axle and tires previously selected in the profile definition process.
Each tire will be marked in black for learn in a specific order. To
learn the marked tire into the system, follow steps 5 to 7 in the
Learn Mode procedure under section 5.6.7.

9. After all locations have been learned successfully, the gauge will

restart and the new vehicle profile definition will be in effect. In the
event that the process had to be canceled or power was lost to the
system, the gauge will assign placeholder IDs to each unlearned
location. After restarting, each of the previously missed locations
can be accessed individually via the Learn Sensor menu and be
reprogrammed.
