5 TPMS Sensor Programming
The Programming function allows users to program the sensor data to the MX-Sensor
and replace faulty sensor with low battery life or one that is not functioning. The scan
tool is easy-to-use with a proven efficiency and guaranteed accurate results.
NOTE
Programming function will only work with Autel’s MX-Sensor. Currently, there are two
models available: Clamp-in Sensor and Snap-in Sensor, both with two types, one in
orange color with 433MHz frequency, and one in dark gray color with 315MHz
frequency. The Clamp-in Sensor is taken as an example in this manual. Please choose
the right MX-Sensor when programming.
There are four options available when programming MX-Sensor using this scan tool:
Auto Create, Manual Create, Copy by OBD, and Copy by Activation.
Press MX-Sensor button on the lower right corner of the function screen (Figure 5-1), a
TPMS Status screen will show up (Figure 5-2).
For vehicle which has 5 wheels, there will be 6 options on the TPMS Status screen:
Front Left, Front Right, Rear Right, Rear Left, Spare, and Multiple Sensors, for
vehicle which has 4 wheels, there is no Spare option. Select the corresponding wheel to
program MX-Sensor one by one, or select Multiple Sensors to program up to 20
MX-Sensors in one operation.
