INTRODUCTION The SmarTire LF Initiator is a handheld tool designed to provoke data transmissions from SmarTire High Pressure Sensors.
Learn: Press this button to make a sensor transmit a ‘Learn’ transmission. Learn transmissions are used when reprogramming sensor ID numbers into the SmarTire receiver. LED FUNCTIONS Whenever a button is pressed, the LF Initiator Tool indicates its status by the color of its LED light.
For dual-wheel assemblies, position the LF Initiator Tool approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from the tire’s surface positioned at the center of the outboard tire’s sidewall opposite the valve stem. The transmission from the tool will pass through the outboard tire and provoke a data transmission from the sensor mounted on the inboard tire. NOTE: Do not contact the tire or wheel surface when initiating data transmission from a sensor.
5. If a sensor ID number is already programmed in the selected wheel position (indicated by a filled in tire icon and an ‘X’ on the screen), the ID number must be erased before a new ID number can be programmed. Press the ‘MODE’ button to erase the pre-programmed ID number (the ‘X’ will disappear) and then press the ‘MODE’ button again to select the wheel position for programming (check mark will be displayed).
