Doran 360SLProgramming ToolOperations Manual
I. INTRODUCTION 1The Doran 360 tool was designed to work with the Doran 360SL system. This tool is used to program all of the information for the trailer wheel sensors into the SmartLink booster. Once programmed, the booster will relay the information from the assigned sensors on the trailer to a tractor s monitor in the cab.The 360SL system is a great tool for fleets, large or small. It provides effortless versatility to monitor trailers that are not married to one tractor. The boosters enable a tractor with the 360SL monitor to drop and hook to different trailers without manually reprogramming the monitor. When power is connected to the trailer and booster, the booster will transmit a special hook-up signal that will prompt the operator to ADD the trailer. By accepting a prompted trailer number, the operator adds the trailer s programmed tires to the monitor and pressure monitoring begins.II.

ENTERING DATA INTO THE TOOL Specific data must be entered into the tool so the data can be transferred into the booster for proper operation on the trailer. Entering data is as easy as sitting at your desk and inputting the information for transfer to the Booster.Turn on the SL tool using the button on the lower left side of the tool. The Doran Programming tool welcome display will be shown.When you press the MENU button you will have 6 selections to choose from:READ INFORMATION FROM BOOSTERSET BOOSTER IDADD SENSOR TO TRAILERSEND INFORMATION TO BOOSTERSELECT PRESSURE UNITVERSION INFORMATIONYou can exit from any of these selections at any time by pressing the MENU button to return to the main menu.READ INFORMATION FROM BOOSTER: This function reads a booster s current information into the SL (SmartLink) tool to make changes and resend, or as a shortcut for the programming of other boosters by using the information downloaded. The SL tool will receive any SL booster signal if the Trailer ID number in the tool is set at all 0 s . However, this method can be frustrating if there are several SL boosters powered up in a close proximity to the SL tool.
III. ENTERING DATA INTO THE TOOL The reason for this is that the tool will grab the first signal that it sees, and it may not be the one that you are intending to work with. If there are not any trailers within a 50-foot radius you should not have any trouble using the tool without setting the trailer ID number. If you know your trailer ID number and have other active SL boosters in the area we suggest that you go to the SET BOOSTER ID section and enter the Trailer ID number for the ease of reading the correct SL booster. Power must be applied to the booster to use this feature.1. Use the up and down arrow keys on the SL tool to select READ INFORMATION FROM BOOSTER and press the ENTER button.2. The SL tool will display READING . The SL tool must be within 6 feet of the booster to read the information.3. When the SL tool has read and downloaded the information, the screen will display READ SUCCESS: along with the BOOSTER ID and TRAILER ID of the successfully read information for your verification (see Figure 1). You can then press the MENU button to return to the main menu.4. If the READ SUCCESS: does not occur within 10 or 15 seconds, then the read may be failing due to interference or the distance is too great. Position the tool closer to the booster and try again. To terminate the READ function at anytime, press the MENU button.SET BOOSTER ID: This is the next selection that can be made on the SL tool.1. Use the up and down arrow buttons to select the SET BOOSTER ID.2. Press the ENTER button to enter into this programming mode (see figure A).3. Press the ENTER button, an arrow will be pointing to the Booster ID Number and the first digit of the Booster ID number will begin to flash. If the Read Information has been used successfully, the number shown will be the Booster number read.4. Enter the 9-digit booster ID number located on the cover of the booster using the numbers on the tool s keypad.READ SUCCESS:001 065 198TRAILER ID:001 256Figure 1BOOSTER ID:> 001 001 001TRAILER ID: 136 987Figure A3

You can enter up to a 6 digit user defined number for the trailer ID by using the numbers on the tool s keypad.

If the READ INFORMATION FROM BOOSTER has been used, or the position has previously been set, that ID number will be displayed. All programmed positions will be shown with solid / shaded tire positions.5. Using the numeric keypad you can change the number. When the sensor ID number has been inputted the pressure number will begin to flash. The system is set at the factory for 100 psi. If you do not need to change it, you can press the ENTER button to lock all information for that wheel position.6. Use the arrow buttons to select the next wheel position to program and repeat the steps above.7.
