22 www.avetechnology.com 10. LF Remote Control In order to simply the complicated procedure of resetting the sensor position by inflating/deflating the wheels when rotating or changing the tires, Remote Control is the best choice. Without an LF Remote control, please rapidly inflate or deflate the tires, which functions the same as pressing the button B of the LF Remote control. Set/Reset the sensor position with LF Setting the sensor position: 1. First, press and hold the buttons on the display and together for 3 seconds to enter TIRE SETUP MODE. It will display “CHG” and then press (NO) to learn the ID CODE of the sensors, while the message area will display “LT” (Leak Test) and the front left tire will flash. (TIRE SETUP MODE is only launched for MO1, p.13.) 2. Press the learning key “B” of LF (make LF near the valve stem of the front left tire), which will force the sensor to transmit signals so that the display can learn the position of the wheel. The display unit will beep once if the signal is received and the message area will display “OK”, and then the message area will turn to the next tire automatically. Before “OK” displayed, please do not move the LF away from the wheel. Repeat the same for the remaining tires. Delete/Skip one sensor: Follow step one to enter TIRE SETUP MODE. When “LT” is displayed on the message area, press (NO). The message area will display “DEL”. Press (YES) to delete the tire, or press (NO) to skip setting the tire. If any sensor is skipped, its previous status will be also kept. Once the tire has been deleted, it should be added back by repeating the procedure of setting sensor position. When the deleted tire is flashing again, learn the ID CODE with an LF or by rapidly deflating/inflating the tire. Spare tire can be deleted or added back in the same way. (Please attend: when you learn the sensor ID into the display, please take other sensors away in the distance of 3 meters to avoid learning the other sensor ID.) Functions of the four buttons of LF: A. Warning mode: Make sensors transmit signals per second for two minutes. After two minutes the sensors will get into normal mode. B. Walk up mode: Make sensors transfer signals every second for one minute. After one minute the sensors will get into normal mode. C. Normal mode: Make sensors transfer signals every 30 second. D. Sleep mode: Make sensors into sleep mode without transmitting any signal and save the battery’s life. But when the sensor is put in the tire, the sensor will detect having pressure and automatically wake up. So when the sensor is installed in tire and you press D, it will not sleep due to the pressure.

24 www.avetechnology.com 12. AVE TPMS Extended Antenna Cable (for Trucks/Buses/Trailers) Figure 2  Red line = Antenna Cable. Figure 3  Must set the antenna cable to the central area among all the wheels.The far distance between the driver cabinet and the rear tires (like a truck or bus) may cause the poor antenna. Besides, the thickness of the vehicle stamping parts, car window films with volumes of metal material, and so on will also cause the interference with the signal transmitting. To make sure of the signal well-transmitted and well-received, an extended antenna cable would be strongly in need for trucks/buses/trailers.  Make sure the connection is tight enough. Figure 1
25 www.avetechnology.com 13. AVE TPMS Optional Accessories Battery Pack (8AA ) • Battery Pack allows display unit to be carried around for easier setup. • Users do not have to rely on the power from the vehicles cigarette lighter power cord. • Useful when setting up vehicles with a lot of wheels. • AVE TPMS will support up to 27 wheels LF Remote control for Tire Sensors • The LF remote control is used to control the tire sensors. The 2 main functions include; ☆Learning Key (A) Press this key to force the sensor to transmit a signal without inflating or deflating the tire’s pressure to learn the wheel position. It also has the function to exchange the tire’s position. ☆ Sleep Key (D) It will force the sensor into sleep mode so it will save the tire sensor’s battery power. • This will only work if the sensor is removed from the wheel, or there is no air pressure in the tire. As soon as the sensor detects air pressure, the sensor will automatically “wake-up”. This is useful when changing tire location (tire rotation) to setup up the tire position. It will force the tire’s sensor to transmit a signal instead of performing the leak test (page 19). • Use as a diagnostic tool to test the tire’s sensor if a sensor is transmitting a signal. Standard Valve • AVE TPMS uses a standard metal valve. • Common valve which is available anywhere. • Allows you to replace just the tire valve if it is damaged or broken. You do not have to replace the entire sensor. • With other TPMS units, you have to replace both the valve and the sensor if either one is broken or damaged.
