1.2 WORKING MODE
1.2.1 NORMAL PRESSURE INSPECTING
If the pressure and temperature of tire is normal, the transmitter will send pressure and
temperature data every 30 seconds.
1.2.2 LOW PRESSURE WARNING MODE
If the pressure of tire is between 0.66 Bar and 4 Bar, the transmitter will send pressure and
temperature data every 12 seconds.
Transmitter: Mounted inside the tyre on the centre of wheel
using cradle and steel strap to continuously monitor tyre’s
pressure and temperature every 10-second and transmit data
via RF to the integrated display at 30-second intervals when
tyres are normal or 12-second when the tyres are abnormal.
Stainless Steel Strap: Tyre transmitters are mounted to the
surface of the rim using a stainless steel strap which can be
installed on hundreds of thousands of wheels world wide. It’s the
most reliable and universal method of transmitter installation.
ID Module: ID module is an international patented innovative
technology used to identify tyre’s position without an
y
activation tool or complicated operation. Each ID module has
an exclusive transmitter with the same ID code. The ID module
is mounted in the display and Trailer ID box to registe
r
transmitter’s ID code into the display that will recognize wheel
positions as well as the baseline pressures for all tyres.

1.3 INSTALLATION TRANSMITTER
Before installation, make sure you identify each pair of transmitter and ID
module. There is a pair of transmitter & ID module, along with a rim label packed in a
small white box, they have same ID code. For example: 01EB327F.
Install the transmitter in the wheel and paste the rim label on the rim. Then install
the ID modules in the corresponding position of display and trailer ID box.
1.3.1 Installation Transmitter
1.3.1.1 Remove the wheel from the vehicle and then remove the tyre. Clean the area where
the transmitter is to be installed.
1.3.1.2 Loose the steel strap. Wrap the strap around the centre of the rim in the lowest spot
and mark it 5 cm (2”) past worm gear.
1.3.1.3 Cut the extra strap tapered and file the rough edges.
5
The strap is under tension. Always use safety goggles or a face shield and
gloves when mounting and dismounting the strap. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
1.3.1.4 Install the tapered end of the strap through the opening of the cradle.
1.3.1.5 Remove the adhesive tape liner from cradle and paste transmitter beside the tyre
valve. Keep the strap parallel to the wheel flange and ensure the strap is positioned in the
lowest spot possible for correct transmitter and cradle retention.
NOTE: The transmitter must be positioned in the lowest spot possible and installed
beside the tyre valve in order to know its approximate location after the tyre has
been mounted.
NOTE: When fixing the transmitter on the rim, make sure the section of steel strap
installed through the transmitter is complete NOT TOOTHED.

1.3.1.6 Position worm gear 4” (10 cm) away from the edge of the transmitter and tighten
worm gear until the transmitter can not be moved. DO NOT over tighten the strap,
reference torque: 27-35 inch lbs (3-4 Nm)
1.3.1.7 Indicate the location and ID code of the transmitter by applying the supplied rim
label to a clean and dry location on the rim.
1.3.1.8 Mount the tyre on the rim, inflate tyre to standard cold inflation pressure specified on
tyre sidewall and dynamic balance the wheel before it is put back on the vehicle.
Ensure that the tyre beads and mounting hook do not touch the transmitter
during mounting. Pay attention to the transmitter antenna not be clamped by tyre
bead and broken by mounting hook. DO NOT inflate tyre higher than maximum
pressure stamped on tyre sidewall.
7
1.3.1.9 Use the same procedure to install the other transmitters. And record all ID numbers
labeled on the rim in the Annex table so that you can attach the ID modules to the proper
location
1.3.2 Installation ID module
1.3.2.1 Position relationship of ID module slots and tyres
The following diagrams are the default relationship between ID module slots and tyre
position. After installing the transmitters in the wheels, their ID modules should be installed
on corresponding ID module slots in display and trailer ID box.

1.3.2.3 Mounting of ID Module
According to the figures above, install all ID modules in the back of display and trailer ID
box.
Pay attention to the matching of needle plugs and slots when mounting ID
module. If you can’t find your vehicle configuration, please contact our customer
service for suggestions.
1.3.2.4 Position relationship of ID module slots and screens
There are three axles of ID module slots in the back of display and trailer ID box
respectively. The axle indicator “123456” on the display matches the six axles. For example,
there are four ID modules mounted in Axle2, their data will be shown on the screen in line 2
from left to right.
NOTE: If no ID module is in the ID module slot, nothing will be shown on the
corresponding screen. For example, no ID modules in axle 3, screens in line 3 do not
illuminate.
1.3.3 Removing Transmitter
1.3.3.1 Deflate the tyre and remove the wheel weights from the rim. Push the tyre bead
away from the rim. Make sure to always set the bead breaker at least 90 degrees from the
valve stem to avoid damaging the transmitter.
1.3.3.2 Firmly fix the wheel on the turntable clamps. (If the mounting head of the tyre
changer is positioned at 12 o'clock, then the valve stem should be at the 11 o'clock position.)
Apply lubricant to both tyre bead and rim, and then demount the upper tyre bead。
1.3.3.3 Use the same procedure to demount the lower tyre bead. (If the mounting head of
the tyre changer is at the 12 o'clock position, then the valve should also be at the 12 o'clock
position.)
1.3.3.4 Final inspection: Visually inspect the rim and transmitter to ensure no damage has
occurred.
