VT TRUCK USE
IMPORTANT:
Information in this manual is specific to a vehicle model or a TPMS captor model
and is given as an example. It may not represent the specific information each
vehicle make and model may require. When handling the tool, it is important to refer
to every message that appears on the screen, and/or to the vehicle's maintenance
manual.
1. VALVE READING TEST
Once in the "Check sensor" menu,
select from the "Scan", "Vehicle
selection" and "Sensor selection"
modes.
1.1. SELECTING THE TPMS READING MODE
VT TRUCK offers three separate modes of use to match the type of use preferred. Users
can therefore choose from the following modes:
- SCAN: successive transmission of all the TPMS communication protocols until
detection of the protocol matching the sensor on board the vehicle. This reading
mode is especially useful for operators who do not know the sensor type mounted
on the vehicle they are servicing.
- VEHICLE SELECTION: selection by vehicle make, model and model year. In this
mode, you must know the vehicle's exact make, model and model year. Following
selection, the vehicle's first TPMS sensor can be read immediately.
- SENSOR SELECTION: selection by make and model of TPMS sensor. Here, the
operator knows the exact make and model of the TPMS sensor on board the
vehicle. This is highly useful, especially for aftermarket sensors. The sensor make
and model can also be identified by first using the "Scan" function.
