INTRODUCTION
The SmarTire LF Initiator is a handheld tool designed to provoke data transmissions from SmarTire
High Pressure Sensors. The tool can be used to assist the installer during:
• New Installations – programming sensor ID numbers & vehicle configuration into the
receiver
• Sensor Replacement - programming new sensor ID numbers into the receiver
• Installation Verification (without moving vehicle)
• Transmitter De-Activation (after removal)
NOTE: The SmarTire LF Initiator is compatible with SmarTire’s low and high pressure
commercial sensors ONLY. It is not compatible with the low pressure sensors used in
SmarTire products for passenger vehicles, motorcycles, trailers and tow-behinds.
