    However, low pressure is the leading cause of premature tire failure and the 360RV can provide early notice of potential problems and assist in maintaining proper pressurization in vehicle tires. The 360RV can be used on all pneumatic tires.

    I. INTRODUCTION Tires can fail for other reasons besides low pressure or overloading. Always be on the alert for any other tire problems as indicated by unusual noises, vibrations, uneven tread wear, or bulges on the tire! If any of these symptoms occur, have the tires checked immediately by a professional! SYSTEM COMPONENTS: (1) Display Monitor w/ fused 12-volt power...

    12-volt power receptacle. This method is the quickest, however it does not allow you to receive the full benefits of the Doran 360RV. Using the accessory cigarette lighter adapter plug for your power source will delay information to the monitor if the power is removed when the vehicle is turned off and the power is removed from the receptacle.

    II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION The monitor is fused internally, however some installers would still prefer to install an inline fuse for precautions. We suggest an optional 2-amp fast blow fuse be used for this purpose. The first time the monitor is powered up the display will show NSP .

    II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION A. Programming the Sensor Location 1. Be sure that the power is on. The first time the monitor is switched on; the display should show NSP .This will signify that no sensor is programmed, or the monitor has not received a new sensor signal yet.
  • Page 8 II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION 4. Using the arrow keys select the first tire position that you want to program. The selected wheel location will be solid. The other wheel positions will only be an outline. If sensors have already been programmed to the monitor, the only sensor locations that will be displayed will be the ones that do not have a sensor already programmed to it.

    II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION 10. Once you have completed the sensor programming sequence for all tires, press the PROG button momentarily to move to the next step, this will be the Base Line Pressure Programming. The monitor will display as shown in Figure 2-7. If you are completely done with all of the programming operations you can press the PROG button for 5 seconds and the monitor will return to the normal mode of operation.

    II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION 188 PSI,depending on your needs. Each wheel position can be set with a different baseline air pressure if this is what is needed. The monitor has been pre-programmed for 100 PSI at each wheel position. If this is the baseline air pressure that you need then you will not have to do anything in this mode and can press the PROG button and go to the next step.
  • Page 11 II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION NOTE: To skip this section and go directly to Programming the Unit of Measure section, just press the PROG button briefly 1 time. The display should look like Figure 2-17. Anytime during this mode you can escape out to the next program mode by pressing the PROG momentarily. 1.

    II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION D. Programming the Unit of Measure NOTE: To enter directly into this program mode you will need to press the PROG button for 5 seconds until the PROGRAM is displayed. Then press the PROG button again briefly 3 times to enter this mode (see Figure 2-17 for screen display).

    II. SETUP AND INSTALLATION 3. If you have additional sensors that need to be deleted repeat the steps until all required sensors are deleted. If you need to program deleted sensors to a different location, or add new sensors to the monitor's memory simply press the PROG button twice to enter into the Programming Sensor Location mode (see page 7).

    This should not be necessary with the Doran 360RV. The dill pin should not be extracted to the point that air is released all the time from the valve stem. This should be checked with a bit of soapy water if you do make an adjustment to the dill valve and after the sensors have been installed.

    NOTE: The DORAN 360RV will illuminate a flashing low tire pressure warning light and an audible alarm for three minutes when the inflation pressure in one or both tires is equal to or less than 12.5 % below the programmed baseline air pressure. The warning will continue to illuminate as long as the malfunction exists, whenever the monitor is switched on.

    IV. ALARM MODES FIRST STAGE ALARM FOR 12.5% LOW AIR PRESSURE: On a first level low pressure alarm the monitor will alarm at 12.5% below the programmed base line air pressure. When this happens the backlight on the monitor screen will light up. The green LED light will go out, the Red warning light will begin to flash and the audible beeper will cycle at 1 flash or beep per second, Figure 4-1...
  • Page 20: High Pressure Alarm

    High Pressure Alarm: The Doran 360RV monitor is capable of monitoring for a High Pressure Warning. This is a warning that is displayed when the baseline air pressure is exceeded by 25%. When this happens the Green light will go out. The audible beeper will beep once per second and HIGH PRESSURE will be displayed on the monitor screen.

    DOES THE MONITOR NEED TO BE POWERED BY A LIGHTER ACCESSORY? No. In fact you will loose some of the benefits of the 360RV if the monitor is wired in this method. If a hard wire option is utilized the end user then will benefit from the sleep mode option that the system incorporates.

    It is possible, during an instantaneous blowout, to have the sensor blown off the tire before it has had a chance to send a signal to the monitor. The 360RV is not designed for this type of tire failure. Tire failure referred to as a blowout, is commonly due to low tire pressure resulting in an overheating of the tire sidewalls to the point of disintegration.
