LINK Sensor Pairing Procedure

Before You Begin

Ensure the sensor is within 3 ft. of the LINK Programmer and that the tire is inflated to at least 20 PSI. Sensors ship in shipping-mode and only wake when they detect > 3 PSI internal pressure.

Pairing Steps

  1. Open the Installer app and select the target asset.
  2. Tap the wheel position (e.g., 'Steer-LF').
  3. Hold the LINK Programmer within 1 in. of the sensor valve stem.
  4. Press and release the PROGRAM button. The programmer chirps once when the sensor ID is captured.
  5. The app displays the sensor serial, current PSI, and temperature within 5 seconds.

Common Pairing Failures

  • No chirp on PROGRAM press — sensor is likely still in shipping mode. Momentarily deflate to 0 PSI and reinflate.
  • 'Duplicate sensor' error — the sensor is already paired to another asset. Use 'Release Sensor' from the fleet console.

Confirming Assignment

After pairing all positions, drive the vehicle at ≥ 15 mph for 2 minutes. The Pulse Gateway will publish a full baseline snapshot to the cloud.
