1 Safety Precautions and Warnings
To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the scan tool,
read this instruction manual first and observe the following safety
precautions at a minimum whenever working on a vehicle:

Always perform diagnosis or service in a safe environment. Wear safety
eye protection that meets ANSI standards.

Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.

Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all
moving or hot engine parts.

Operate the vehicle in a well-ventilated work area: Exhaust gases are
poisonous.

Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle
unattended while running tests.

Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor
cap, ignition wires and spark plugs. These components create
hazardous voltages when the engine is running.

Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline/chemical/electrical fires
nearby.

Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL
(for manual transmission) and make sure the parking brake is engaged.

Refer to the user’s manual for the vehicle being serviced and adhere to
all diagnostic procedures and precautions. Otherwise personal injury or
unneeded repairs may result.

Keep the scan tool dry, clean, free from oil/water or grease. Use a mild
detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the scan tool, when
necessary.

Keep the TPMS tool dry, clean, free from oil, water and grease. Use a
mild detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the TPMS tool
when necessary.
2 General Information
2.1 TPMS system review
A tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an electronic system designed
to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of
vehicles. TPMS report real-time tire-pressure information to the driver of the
vehicle, either via a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure
warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types - direct (dTPMS)
and indirect (iTPMS). TPMS are provided both at an OEM (factory) level as
well as an aftermarket solution.
2.2 TPMS Legislation
In the United States, the United States Department of Transportation (NHTSA)
released the FMVSS No. 138, which requires an installation of a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System to all new passenger cars, multipurpose
passenger vehicles, trucks, and buses that have a gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR) of 4,536 kg (10,000 lbs.) or less, except those vehicles with dual
wheels on an axle, as of 2007. In the European Union, starting November 1,
2012, all new models of passenger cars must be equipped with a TPMS, with
even tighter specifications that will be defined by the UNECE Vehicle
Regulations (Regulation No. 64). From November 1, 2014, all new passenger
cars sold in the European Union must be equipped with TPMS. On July 13,
2010, the South Korean Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs
announced a pending partial-revision to the Korea Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (KMVSS), specifying that "TPMS shall be installed to passenger
vehicles and vehicles of GVW 3.5 tons or less, ... [effective] on January 1,
2013 for new models and on June 30, 2014 for existing models". Japan is
expected to adopt European Union legislation approximately one year after
European Union implementation. Further countries to make TPMS
mandatory include Russia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Israel, Malaysia and
Turkey.
2.3 TPMS tell-tale light
When diagnosing TPMS systems, you should understand what the TPMS
tell-tale light means.
When turning the ignition OFF to ON, the TPMS tell-tale display and then go
off, indicating the system is working fine. If the light stays on, the tire pressure
may be too low or too high. If the TPMS light flashes, an error exist within the
system. Such an error can be caused by a faulty sensors or by the IDs of the
sensors installed on the tires not matching the registered IDs within the
vehicle ECU.
2.4 Benefits of TPMS
The significant advantages of TPMS are summarized as follows:

Fuel saving.

Extended tire life.

Decreased downtime and maintenance.

Improved safety.

Environmental efficiency.

4 Auto Scan
The MaxiTPMS® TS201 can automatically trigger the original sensor to
display sensor and tire data by selecting the manufacturer name of the
original sensor. OEM sensors the TS201 can trigger include Schrader, VDO,
TRW, Pacific, Huf/Beru, BAOLONG, etc.
To enter the Auto Scan menu
Turn on the tool. Use the UP or DOWN Arrow button to select Auto Scan
from Main Menu, and press the OK button.
Figure 4.1
There are three options for activating the original sensor: LF (Low
Frequency) Scan, Deflation Scan and Magnet Scan.
Figure 4.2
4.1 LF Scan
In this function, the tool will send out low frequency (LF) signal to active the
TPMS sensors.
4.1.1 Select sensor’s manufacturer
From the Auto Scan screen, select the manufacturer name or brand of the
original sensor by using the UP and DOWN Arrow buttons. The name of
vehicle manufacturers using these sensors are listed within parenthesis. For
example, GM, Ford, Chrysler and Mercedes often use Schrader (SCH)
sensors.
Figure 4.3
4.1.2 Trigger Process
To trigger or activate the sensor, hold the tool no more than 2 inches from the
sensor or from the tire sidewall (Figure 4.4) and press OK button.
Figure 4.4
Figure 4.5
