Setup Procedure
13
Once OmiDetect detects the appropriate response
signal, it will beep 3 times, the LEDs will stop flashing,
and the LED for the frequency of the response signal it
detected (either 315MHz or 433MHz) will illuminate for 5
seconds to indicate the sensor is operating properly. If it
does not detect the appropriate signal, you will hear a
continuous beep and the X LED will illuminate
continuously, indicating the sensor is not operating
properly. OmiDetect will then reset itself back to the last
test mode used ready for the next test.
If OmiDetect is unable to activate the sensor, be sure to
confirm that you selected the correct sensor type for
testing. Also, remember that some sensors cannot be
activated electronically and must be activated
magnetically. (Refer to the Omitec TPM System Quick
Reference Guide for information on whether the sensor
must be activated magnetically.) If necessary, you can
activate a sensor manually using one of the techniques
outlined in the following section.
To cancel a test once it has started, simply press and
hold down the Power On/Off button for 3 seconds.
OmiDetect will then automatically power itself Off.
Important: If the wheel service work you are performing
on the vehicle includes rotating the tires or replacing a
TPM sensor, with most TPM systems you must
reprogram the TPM control module so it can identify the
new TPM sensor locations, covered in Section 6.
