These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interface when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interface in which case the user will be required to correct the interface at there own expense. 3 Product Overview The Bartec BXR HLF-C unit is a rugged hand held radio tag reader configured to read TPMS sensors when installed in a wheel. The sensor is activated by means of a low frequency (125KHz) magnetic field. This is emitted from the round antenna attached to the front of the unit. LC Display Keypad Trigger Antenna Housing
(Integral Laser Module) The magnetic field is activated by means of a trigger located on the front of the unit. The magnetic field or other features are selected from the menu driven system controlled by the keypad. There is a liquid crystal display (LCD) of 4 lines of 20 characters. This is used to display menus, and to display the sensor's ID number. 4 LEDs There are also two LEDs on the rear of the reader that are visible while the reader is in use. The green LED indicates a good read, while the red LED indicates a failure to read a sensor. Both LEDs remain illuminated until the next sensor is read or after one minute elapses. A sounder is provided to indicate the reader is activating and decoding the TPMS and also indicates a successful read. 5 Theory of Operation Tag Reader While in the presence of the magnetic field, the TPMS becomes active and transmits its ID number by modulating the applied magnetic field. This is picked up by the reader's antenna and demodulated into an electrical signal that is filtered and processed by the reader. The reader then decodes the sensor's ID number and displays it on the LCD screen. Sequence of Operation Introduction The BXR range of readers has been developed to be easy and quick to use. This allows operators to become proficient within a short period and minimises the risk of user error. The BXR HLF-C 2005 will activate and read radio tags at ultra high frequency. The BXR HLF-C 2005 will activate and read radio tags and has additional bar code scanning capabilities. The bar code reader scans, displays and records the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The TAG reader will activate, display and record the TPM ident of all four wheels on the vehicle. For efficient operation, the reader utilises a tight structured menu system. Power up Instructions Hold trigger and quickly touch and release power button, continue to hold trigger until release trigger comes onto screen. Enter password 123456. Navigating the Menus There are two methods for navigating the menus. The first method is to use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to move to the desired function and pressing ENTER to select. The second method is to use the function number. Pressing the number will take you directly to the function. 6 Clear key Pressing CLEAR at any point in the operating sequence will return the user to the beginning of the complete sequence. That is, even if the user is on the last wheel to be recorded, pressing CLEAR will return the user to the start requiring all the VIN and wheels to be scanned and activated again. All data to this point will be lost. Arrow keys Using the arrow keys allows the operator to move between the operations as required. 7 Operation Cycle When the unit is first initialised, the display may indicate company or location and firmware version. The user will then be at the beginning of the operating cycle and will not see the main screen again unless the unit is re-booted. The units antenna should be placed adjacent to the sensor before pulling the trigger. In most cases, the optimum position for the antenna is half over the sensor and half over the tire close but not touching the wheel. This is because the metal of the wheel attenuates the magnetic field. Placing the antenna directly over the valve will probably result in an unsuccessful read. When the trigger is pressed, the unit immediately starts to generate the 125KHz magnetic field. The trigger must be held in until an audible tone is sounded and the UHF ID appears on screen. If the sensor is not read properly, read TPM ID try again, will appear on the screen. After receiving the UHF ID the user may enter another information screen by pressing the up arrow key. The PSI, temperature in Celsius, tool, check pass or fail, battery, and rotating or not rotating, will all appear on the screen. 8 Menu Setup Main Menu Options 1. Set Mode 1. Scan + 4 tires 2.
