3.3 Clear The Warning Display
• A warning will continue to be displayed until the cause of the warning
is corrected.
• When multiple warnings occurred, the higher priority warning will be
displayed first.
• Using a pin to press the Reset Switch through the hole in the
back side will clear all warnings and tire readings.
• If the abnormal situation persists, however, warnings will be
displayed again later even after the display was cleared.
4. Display Parameter Set Up
The monitor supports user setup of certain display parameters.
The user can adjust the warning threshold for tire pressure and
temperature, and calibrate the pressure reading:
• Press and hold down both the Setup and the Control buttons -
after 3 seconds the monitor enters the Parameter Setup Mode.
Release the buttons.
Version 1.2 User’s Manual 8
• The first screen is for setting up the Low Pressure warning
threshold for the steer axle, indicates by two darken tire icons on
the front axle of the vehicle graphic.
• While in a setup screen, the Control Button on the front panel is
used to change the setting. Each Control button pressing
increment the setting by one unit. When setting reaches the
maximum value it will wrap around back to the minimum.
Pressing and holding down the Control Button advances the
setting rapidly.
• While in a setup screen, pressing the Setup Button brings the
setup mode to the next screen. While in the last screen (High
Temperature), pressing the Setup Button exits the Setup Mode
and saves the new settings for all screens.
• The order of the setup screens is:
° Tractor steer axle low pressure warning threshold
° Tractor drive axle low pressure warning threshold
° Tractor tag axle low pressure warning threshold (if any)
° Trailer first axle low pressure warning threshold (if any)
° Trailer second&third axle low pressure warning threshold (if any)
° High pressure warning threshold for all tractor tires
° High pressure warning threshold for all trailer tires (if any)
° High temperature warning threshold for all tires
° Pressure reading calibration for all tires - can be set to a value
within the range of -9 to 9 PSI, allowing adjustment to the
pressure reading for reconcile with a reference gauge.
Notes:
While the TPMS provides sufficiently accurate tire pressure
measurements, some user might prefer to use manual gauge
readings as points of reference. In the event that there is a
discrepancy between gauge and TPMS readings, user may adjust
the Pressure Reading Calibration value for reconciling the
measurements differences. A negative Calibration value subtracts
from the TPMS readings while a positive value adds to it. Thus if on
the average TPMS readings are 2 PSI higher than the gauge, a
Calibration value of -2 would bring the TPMS readings down to the
gauge level, so that when the user sees a pressure reading on the
display he or she would know it is close to the gauge measurement.
After adjusting the Calibration value its effect is applicable to new
measurements, so the display will show the reconciled readings
when receiving fresh sensor signals, such as while the vehicle is
moving.
