摘要:
A vehicle system for controlling at least one radio frequency (RF) receiver/control unit is provided. The system comprises a global positioning system (GPS) receiver, a vehicle controller, and a vehicle interface display. The GPS receiver is configured to generate a geographic location signal indicative of the first location of the RF receiver/control unit. The vehicle controller is configured to associate the geographic location signal to an RF control signal. The vehicle interface display is configured to present at least one menu option for occupant selection to control the operation of the RF receiver/control unit such that the vehicle interface display controls the vehicle controller to transmit the RF control signal to control the RF receiver/control unit to perform the predetermined operation in response to the occupant selecting the at least one menu option.
摘要:
A system (10) and method is provided for calibrating a tire pressure monitoring system using an EM transmitter (14). The present invention includes a first pressure sensor coupled to a wheel of an automotive vehicle (12). The EM pressure transmitter (14) is coupled to the pressure sensor (32). The transmitter (14) has a serial number associated therewith. An EM calibration device has a transmitting range. The EM transmitter device has an actuator. When the actuator is activated, a calibration signal (34) is transmitted within the transmitting range. The calibration signal causes the EM pressure transmitter (32) to transmit a serial number. A controller (16) is EM coupled to the pressure transmitter. The controller (16) receives the serial number and associates the serial number with a tire location of the vehicle.
