  The display is preprogramed to provide a warning if the pressure drops 20% below or 

  30% above the cold inflation pressure.  It will also give a high temperature warning if 

  the temperature exceeds 176°F.  The high temperature warning point is not adjustable.  

 

  The system is shipped with the baseline (cold inflation) pressure set at 35 psi.  At this 

  setting, the display will provide a low pressure warning at 28 psi and a high pressure 

  warning at 46 psi.  You can set the baseline pressure (see Setting the Baseline (Cold 

  Inflation) pressure in Setting up the System on page 2) up to 144 psi and the display 

  will automatically provide a low pressure warning at 20% below and 30% above the 

  baseline setting.

  3.3  Normal Monitoring 

   

3.3.1 Stationary State:  

The transmitter will transmit tire pressure and temperature data to the 

display at 2-minute intervals.  As the data is received, the display will 

refresh. 

3.3.2 Moving State: 

The inertial switch in the transmitter turns on when the speed ex-

ceeds 16mph. 

The transmitter will transmit tire pressure and temperature data to the 

display at 30-second intervals.  As the data is received, the display 

will refresh.
