Display Pressures Mode. To select, press and hold until
This mode continuously displays each sensor's location followed by its pressure. This will continue
until the next key off/on cycle.
Example:
Display Sensor IDs Mode: To select, press and hold until
This mode continuously displays each sensor's location followed by its sensor ID. This is an 8 digit
alphanumeric number corresponding to the number located next to the label "ASIC" on the sensor
itself. It is used by the TPMS Receiver Module to identify sensors. This display will continue until the
next key off/on cycle. See the example below:
Display Battery Status Mode: To select, press and hold until
This mode continuously displays each sensor's location followed by its battery status. This will
continue until the next key off/on cycle.
- Is displayed if the sensor is inactive or missing.
- Is displayed if the sensor's battery is OK.
- Is displayed if the sensor's battery is low.
Example:
Display Temperature Mode. To select, press and hold until
This mode continuously displays each sensor's location followed by its temperature in degrees
Celsius. This will continue until the next key off/on cycle.

BIM Learn Sensors Mode:
Dakota Digital takes care of the initial configuration of the BIM-22-2 and associated TPMS Receiver Module and TPMS
sensors so you should not have to go through this process. However, in the event a sensor is damaged during
installation in a tire, upon tire replacement or if its battery has depleted, the module can be taught to detect and
"learn" new sensors. Make sure there are no other TPMS sensors similar to those provided with the BIM-22-2 in the
surrounding area as the system could receive from them and have adverse effects on this procedure. This includes
any sensors you are replacing. These replaced sensors need to be removed from the area so that the system
determines they are missing and are to be replaced by your new sensors. This mode will only function properly if all
four TPMS sensors (including the new one(s)) are mounted in tires. If you want useful audible notification during this
process (HDX only), enable the sound and increase its volume. For example, HDX: in the Setup->SW, Sound-
>Volume). Be sure to exit setup as alarms are not enabled while in the HDX setup menu. Follow the procedure below
to configure the BIM-22-2 to detect and replace with new sensor(s):
Follow the steps in the section Special Operating Modes to get to the
Once in this mode, the BIM will start displaying
number of missing sensors detected and the digit on the right indicates the number of new sensors detected.
In this mode, it takes approximately 2 minutes for the TPMS Receiver Module to detect missing sensors.
During this time, the sensors in all four vehicle tires can be "woken up" by inflating or deflating the tires with a
change in pressure of more than 2 PSI. The alarm will briefly sound whenever a missing sensor or new
sensor is detected. The order in which you inflate/deflate the tires is not important in this mode. Note that the
number of missing sensors may increase to "" until the sensors are woken up. Once the sensors are woken
up and detected, the correct value of missing sensors will be displayed.
When the sensors have been woken up and the system has detected missing sensors, the BIM will alternately
display
and
HDX alarm will briefly sound indicating the number of missing sensors and/or new sensors has changed telling
you to move on to the next tire.
Under normal driving conditions, a low battery means you have approximately 2 months of
battery life left.
