1.5 Position of Transmitter and ID module Note the default installation position of the transmitter and ID modules as illustrated. A letter identifier marked on the transmitter, ID module, and hex nut is shown on each component. The letters “LF/RF/LR/RR” on the back of the display unit correspond to the tires’...
2.0 Transmitter Installation Before installation into the rim hole, you must assemble the transmitter and valve stem together. 2.1 Unscrew the hex nut and remove the metal washer from the valve stem. 2.2 Place the valve stem onto the transmitter and use the lock washer & screw to hold valve stem against the transmitter body.
2.10 Apply suds on the valve tip, grommet / rim seal. If no leakage is found, install the valve cap. Otherwise, re-inspect and resolve leak issue. 2.11 Dynamically balance the wheel before it is put back on the vehicle. 2.12 Visually inspect the wheel rim, valve stem, and electronic module to ensure no damage has occurred.
3.1.2 Plug the power cord into the display unit and plug the adapter into auxiliary power supply. An immediate audible “Beep” sound will indicate the display unit is on. In 2 to 3 minutes, the display unit will show the tire pressures in yellow, along with four blue tire position lights.
3.3 Cold Inflation Pressure Setting Cold inflation pressure setting is pre-set at the to 35PSI, when installation and replacement of each transmitter and ID modules. To change cold inflation pressure setting, perform the following: 3.3.1 Inflate the tire pressures to the recommended cold inflation pressure. 3.3.2 Press the “SET”...

1. The display will show the pressure of the abnormal tire and the digits will flash. 2. An audible alert warning sound will be heard. 3. The abnormal icon will become red. 4. The indicator for the abnormal tire will become red. The system will not return to normal monitoring until the problem(s) is corrected.
If the display unit is working properly and it still does not receive a signal from the transmitter(s), then the transmitter(s) and ID module(s) must be replaced simultaneously. A replacement transmitter and ID module can be purchased from a Dill distributor or retailer, list available at www.trailertpms.com. 3.7 Antenna Installation (Optional) and RF Interference* If the display unit is receiving a signal on an intermittent basis, i.e.

Remove the original antenna from the back of the display unit and replace it with the coaxial wire antenna via display connector. Installing the external antenna involves a small degree of experimentation for maximum signal reception. Temporarily connect the antenna cable to the display, passing the cable through the vehicle’s door or window.
3.8 Tire Rotation 3.8.1 Reference your tire manufacturer for proper tire rotation on your trailer. 3.8.2 Note the current installation positions of the transmitter and ID modules. For example, if you need to rotate the Left Front Wheel (LF) transmitter A and Right Rear Wheel (RR) transmitter C, then interchange ID chip module A and ID chip module C.
4. Specifications 4.1 Transmitter Weight: 1.25 oz. (35g) Dimensions: 0.59” x 2.50” x 1.11” (1.5 x 2.8 x 6.4 cm) Operating Temperature Range: -40°F to 257°F (-40°C to 125°C) Pressure Accuracy: ±2PSI (±.14Bar) Temperature Accuracy: ±5.4°F (±3°C) ...
