Figure 4-19 Copy by OBD Screen
When the programming is complete, the programmed ID will display in the column to the
left of the wheel designation. In the pictured example, the new ID is displayed to the right
of the LF column.
By using Copy by OBD, the sensor ID that is retrieved from TPMS ECU is programmed
to the new MX-Sensor.
Normally, there is no need to perform the Relearn function to write the ID into the ECU
when the new programmed sensor has been put in the same position.
The Copy by OBD programming method, if available, is recommended to program new
MX-Sensors as there is no need for Relearn.
4.6.2 Auto Create
The Auto Create function is used to automatically create new sensor IDs to program
new MX-Sensors. Make sure the sensors to be auto created are placed within 0.33 feet
(10 cm) of the tablet, and avoid possible programming errors by putting the other sensors
at least 3.94 feet (1.2 m) away from the tablet. Up to 20 MX-Sensors can be programmed
at the same time.
Select the vehicle model. Select a wheel location on the display and place MX-Sensors
in front of the tablet. Tap Auto Create to program new MX-Sensors.
New IDs will be created for the MX-Sensors. These new IDs differ from the IDs stored in
the TPMS ECU. Therefore, the sensors will have to be relearned to the TPMS ECU.
