SmarTire Road Voice Monitoring
Systems
The
SmarTire Road Voice system provides real-time tire information
from the convenience of your driver's seat. This information
will alert you to a small tire leak before it becomes a big
problem.
Driving
a motorhome is a rewarding and challenging experience. When
you're behind the wheel of a large diesel-powered coach it is
nearly impossible to detect a low or flat tire on your toad.
The Road Voice system gives you peace of mind knowing that
your toad's tires are being monitored. You can relax and enjoy
the journey and not worry about checking your mirrors
constantly to see if there's a problem with your towed vehicle
or trailer.
How
It Works:
Wheel mounted transmitters continually monitor the pressure
and temperature in your tires. This information is sent using
radio frequency technology via an antenna located on the rear
of the motorhome to a receiver mounted under the dashboard. A
small dash-mounted display provides the information at the
touch of a button. If a tire problem is detected, the display
will immediately flash and issue an audible alarm. This early
warning gives you the opportunity to repair or change your
tire before the situation becomes serious.
Features
of the Road Voice system:
- Accurate to +/- 1.5 PSI -
more accurate than a tire gauge.
- 7 year battery life of
transmitter.
- Fully programmable alerts
and settings.
- Upgradeable for a 6-wheel
trailer with purchase of an additional axle kit.
- One year warranty

System
Operation :
The Full Functional Display offers an LCD read-out of actual
tire pressure, contained air temperature, and status;
Pressure status is expressed as a plus or minus, indicating
over or under inflation.
After
power is applied the system performs a diagnostic check. The
light will flash, a beep will sound, and icons will appear.
After the check is complete, the screen will go blank,
awaiting signals from the tires.
Tire
icons will then appear on the screen shortly after moving,
signifying that signals have been received from the tires.
The system is now operating properly, with no alerts.
The
Full Function Display has three buttons:
Tire
Button: (top right square), toggles between the
tires displayed on the screen.
Mode
Button: (middle right
square), toggles between pressure, temperature and status.
Set
Button: (small
bottom button), returns system to stand-by mode. Used for
programming.
Push
any button to stop the warning beeper.
The
Full Function Display has three alert settings:
Status
Alert: Alerts the driver when the actual pressure
deviates 10 psi, from what the temperature compensated
pressure should be. The light comes on, the system beeps,
and the problem tire is displayed.
Low
Pressure Warning: When the
tire pressure drops to the 2nd programmed threshold, the
light flashes, the system emits a continuous beep, and the
problem tire and pressure are displayed.
Temperature
Alert: When the
air temperature in a tire reaches the programmed threshold,
the alarm light comes on, the system beeps and the problem
tire and temperature is displayed
