1.Connect the programmer to the PC properly. 2.Double-click the client software to start it. 3.Click Brand in the upper-left corner to go to the brand selection page. 4.Select a brand such as BMW and go to the vehicle series and model 4 selection page. 5.Select a vehicle series and model such as 1 series and go to the year selection page. 6.Select a year and go to the activation and programming page. 7.Place the sensor on the programmer. Ensure that no other sensors exist within a range 50 cm from the programmer and that the sensor to be activated is no more than 10 cm from the programmer. 8.Click Activate to activate the sensor and read sensor information. 9.The sensor information that is read after activation is displayed in the dialog box on the right. 2.3. Programming a Sensor You can program the general-purpose programmable sensors of PDW Technology. The programming method is as follows:
2.3.1. Programming a Single Sensor 1.Connect the programmer to the PC properly. Double-click the client software to start it. 2.Click Brand in the upper-left corner to go to the brand selection page. Select a brand, vehicle series and model and year, and go to the activation and programming page. 3.Create a sensor ID. Three methods are available:
Enter an ID manually. Enter a new ID in the text box. Activate to copy an ID. Place the original sensor on the programmer and click Activate. The programmer obtains the sensor ID and enters it in the text box. 5 Create an ID automatically. Click Create ID. The client software creates an ID and enters it in the text box. See the following gure. 4.Place a general-purpose programmable sensor of PDW Technology on the programmer. Ensure that no other sensors exist within a range 50 cm from the programmer. 5.Click Program. The client software searches for and programs the sensor. 6.After programming, the ID, barometric pressure, temperature, quantity of electricity, and other information are displayed in the dialog box on the right. 56 2.3.2. Programming Multiple Sensors The programmer supports simultaneous programming of up to ve sensors. The procedure is as follows:
1.Connect the programmer to the PC properly. Double-click the client software to start it. 2.Click Brand in the upper-left corner to go to the brand selection page. Select a brand, vehicle series and model and year, and go to the activation and programming page. Select Multisensor.. 4.Place general-purpose programmable sensors of PDW Technology
(up to ve sensors) on the programmer. Ensure that no other sensors exist within a range 50 cm from the programmer and that the sensors to be programmed are no more than 10 cm from the programmer. 7 5.Click Program. The client software searches for and creates sensor IDs. 6.Check that the sensor quantity and IDs are correct. Click OK to start programming. 7.After programming, the sensor IDs are displayed in the dialog box on the right again. 8 2.3.3.
