SmarTire LF Initiator - Operating Instructions
The SmarTire LF Initiator is a wireless service tool that facilitates
the learning of sensor ID numbers into the receiver during system
setup on a vehicle. The Initiator works in conjunction with the
Commercial high pressure sensors*.
*LF Initiator is not compatible with Low Pressure Sensors (SmarTire for Passenger Car products that measure to
a maximum of 65 PSI).

Product Functions
BUTTON
FUNCTION
Initiate
This function is used after the sensors are installed to confirm that
the sensor was programmed properly. Pressing this button next to
the sensor causes the sensor to transmit its ID, pressure and
temperature readings.
This function should only be used when the sensors are taken out
of the tire and need to be shipped back to the supplier. Pressing
this button next to the sensor causes the sensor to stop
transmitting.
This function is used at the time of sensor installation. Pressing
this button next to the sensor causes the sensor to transmit its
unique ID number for the purpose of programming the Receiver.

Activating the LF Initiator
The Initiator is powered with a 9 Volt battery that is installed by opening
the battery access panel on the back. An ON / OFF switch is located on
the right side and this should be pushed upward to turn the Initiator
“ON” and downward to turn the Initiator “OFF.”
Using the LF Initiator
The Initiator has a transmission range of approximately 2 feet. To ensure
proper reception, the Initiator should be within this transmission range
and the Initiator must be held facing the sensor for at least 5 seconds
after the button is pressed. Sensors are normally located adjacent to the
valve’s location (figure 1). Hold the Initiator against the tire and point it
toward the sensor location from a position slightly outside the rim flange
(figures 2 and 3).

Figure 2
Figure 3
NOTE:
Normally dual tire assemblies are installed with their valves located 180 degrees from
each other. This means that the sensors will also be located 180 degrees from each other
and initiating either the outboard or inboard sensors will not cause the other sensor to
respond because of the mass of the wheel and hub separating the two locations. The
Initiator held against the sidewall of the outboard tire / wheel assembly and pointed
toward the location of the sensor on the inboard tire / wheel assembly will be within LF
field detection range.

Programming Newly Installed Sensors
1. Install the sensors on the wheels as described in the SmarTire for RV
Installation Guide, and then install all of Tire / Wheel assemblies, onto the
vehicle;
2. Power up Receiver and Full Function Display (FFD) by switching ignition on
and setting the Receiver into ‘LEARN’ mode as described in the FFD User’s
Manual;
3. On the Display, select the desired tire position. The outline of the wheel
position to be programmed will flash;
4. Position the Initiator against the tire’s sidewall, press the LEARN button and
hold in that location for at least 5 seconds, as described in the previous section.
The Receiver registers a signal reception from that sensor by showing a filled
in wheel icon on the Display;
NOTE:
For the inboard locations of dual tires, the initiator can be held against the
outboard tire sidewall in line with the position of the inboard sensor to initiate
the transmission without having to reach around the outer tire / wheel assembly;
5. If programming more sensors in the system, select the next tire location on the
FFD and repeat step #4 until all sensor ID numbers and their appropriate
locations on the vehicle have been learned by the Receiver;
6. Exit the Receiver ‘LEARN’ mode by pressing the “Set” button on the Display;
NOTE:
If an ‘ERR’ message is displayed together with flashing tire locations, those
indicated locations have been programmed with the same sensor ID numbers. In
this case, press the TIRE button on the FFD to re–enter the Receiver ‘LEARN’
mode and reprogram the flashing sensor locations;
7. Press the “Set” button again to completely exit from the receiver
programming modes and save the sensor ID numbers to the Receiver memory;
Verifying Correct Installation
To check correct ID programming of the receiver, power up the receiver and
utilize the INITIATE button on the Initiator as described in step #4 to cause each
sensor to transmit. Alternatively, drive the vehicle above ~ 6 mph. If any locations
are not being received, it is likely that the programmed ID number is incorrect
and programming the sensors using the ‘LEARN’ function will need to be
repeated for those locations.
