1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The tire pressure monitoring system (referred as TG for Tire Guard) consists of
the following units:
- Tire guard transmitter S122780002 which includes an integrated pressure,
temperature and acceleration sensor and a RF transmitter.
- RF receiver unit which includes a receiver (not described in this document)
The Tire Guard system monitors a vehicle's tire pressure whilst driving or
stationary. An electronic unit (wheel unit) inside each tire, mounted to the valve
stem, periodically measures the actual tire pressure. By means of RF
communication, this pressure information is transmitted to the RF
receiver/decoder.
In stationary mode, the pressure, temperature and acceleration are measured
about every minute and emission of RF frames occurs only if pressure variation,
higher than a threshold, is detected (leakage detection).
When the vehicle starts moving, the Tire Guard transmitter enters the driving
mode. It measures and transmits RF burst 12 times per minute (every 5s) up to
30 bursts. After this period the wheel unit measures and transmits data every
minute. The wheel unit will remain in driving mode for a period of 15 minutes
after the vehicle is stopped. After this period has elapsed, the wheel unit returns
to stationary mode.
If, during any measurement period in driving mode, the pressure leakage is
detected (difference compared to the last transmitted pressure value), a re-
measure will occur after 5s taking in account the latest pressure value emitted as
reference value. If the pressure continues changing, an additional transmission
will be sent.
The circuit within the wheel unit monitors the battery every time a pressure
measurement is taken. A “Low Battery” function code will be sent when the
battery voltage within the wheel unit is below a pre-selected level.
