1. Park safely. Inspect tires and use a suitable gauge to check cold pressure against the vehicle placard. Example readings and screenshots are not inflation recommendations.
2. Use a compatible Android phone and compatible powered TPMS sensors. Turn Bluetooth on.
3. Read and accept the app's data disclosure. Grant the Bluetooth / nearby-device permissions requested by your Android version. Older Android versions also require Location for Bluetooth discovery, and background access where requested. The app does not record a GPS route.
4. Allow notifications where requested. Review the separate battery-optimization prompt: select Open Battery Settings and choose Unrestricted / Don't optimize where available, then return; or choose Not Now. Pairing waits for that choice.

1. Choose the Spartan RV Travel Trailer model and the correct axle count: single, dual and triple axles. Enable the spare only if you intend to monitor it.
2. Locate the certification label or data plate on your RV. Use Settings to manage your sensor assignments and pressure baseline. Enter a valid cold axle pressure and, when enabled, the spare pressure from the vehicle placard / approved tire guidance. Confirm the placard statement before saving.
3. Select PSI or kPa for pressure and Fahrenheit or Celsius for temperature. Unit choice changes display values; it does not change the physical tire pressure. The high-temperature set point is fixed at 85°C / 185°F.
4. Complete sensor setup and tap Finish Setup to save baseline and units and start normal monitoring.

First setup and setup after Factory Reset suppress alert outputs. Finish Setup starts a further one-minute quiet period: BLE reception and live updates continue, while sounds, vibration and alert notifications/popups are suppressed. Old suppressed alerts are not replayed; new frames follow normal rules after that minute. Reopening the app or editing settings does not restart this timer.

1. Open Settings > Manage Sensors. Normal tire monitoring pauses while Manage Sensors is open; perform this work while parked.
2. Choose the tire position and start its fresh 60-second pairing scan before triggering the sensor's approved learn procedure. Only that active selected-tire scan uses high-performance BLE scanning.
3. Activate one intended sensor at a time using the manufacturer's procedure. Nearby eligible learn broadcasts can be selected first. For a procedure requiring air release, release air only after the scan has started, and reinflate to the approved placard pressure afterward.
4. Check the assigned sensor ID and first received reading against the intended tire. Repeat for each tire and the optional spare. If the scan expires, start another fresh scan and retry the learn procedure.
5. Use the selected position's unpair action to remove an incorrect or replaced assignment. An unpaired position is gray and is not monitored. Pair the replacement and verify the assignment again.
6. Leave Manage Sensors and finish the required setup / save flow. Confirm live reception for each intended tire before travel.

The pairing frame supplies initial pressure, temperature and battery information. New advertisements replace those readings. A last received value does not prove that the tire is currently healthy.

The vehicle drawing maps road and curb positions and the optional spare to their assigned sensors. Read the pressure, temperature, battery, status and timestamp / reception information available for each tire.

Signal/RSSI, when available, describes received radio information. Unknown signal stays unavailable. Check fresh readings for actual tire checks.

Pressure limits are relative to your saved cold baseline. They are auto-applied safety limits, not alternative inflation targets.

Timing is independent per tire and is subject to initial setup quiet periods, mute and phone/platform settings. Reported sensor faults or invalid readings should be investigated rather than interpreted as healthy.

Tap the speaker control to mute or unmute sound only. Tire colors, in-app warnings, phone notifications, background reception and Android Auto status remain active. Mute does not fix an unsafe condition. A first healthy frame clears the active fault and cancels future repeats; a chime already started may finish once, and a silent Resolved notification remains until dismissed.

Battery percentage is an estimate of the sensor's usable voltage range, not a phone-battery gauge or a remaining-life guarantee. Sound and vibration require a capable device and suitable Android settings; verify them safely before relying on them.

After setup, the foreground monitoring service supports reception while the app is in the background or the phone screen is off. Keep Bluetooth, required permissions and the ongoing monitoring notification enabled. Review manufacturer battery restrictions if reception stops.

Return to the app and check each tire's latest status after a phone restart, force stop, permission change or long interruption. Android and device power policies can interrupt background execution. Opening Manage Sensors pauses normal monitoring. Choosing Quit stops monitoring and completes the current trip; reopen and verify monitoring before the next journey.

1. Complete real setup on the phone while parked and verify sensor reception.
2. Connect the phone to a compatible Android Auto host using the host's supported connection method. Follow Android Auto's own setup and permission prompts.
3. Open Spartan RV TPMS from the host's available app list. Check that the configured tires, units, values and status match the phone.
4. Use the head unit as a view-only display. Change layout, pair sensors, edit settings, export or delete on the phone while parked.

If the app is absent from the launcher, check phone/host compatibility and whether the installed app is authorized for Android Auto. A local QA build may need developer testing access; a public store release is a separate step. The PC Desktop Head Unit was used for bench verification. Android Auto host support can change, especially on older phones.

Unknown / missing measurements are not presented as healthy live readings. Apple CarPlay is supported by the Apple version.

1. Open Settings > Trips History. Recording starts automatically when a paired sensor sends a reading during monitoring.
2. Select a trip to inspect its times, duration, monitor, status and stored measurements. An active trip is still recording; quitting monitoring completes it.
3. An unexpected stop leaves an interrupted trip with its saved readings. Nothing is recorded while monitoring is stopped.

History is stored locally on this phone and works offline. Samples are recorded at the core's five-second history cadence when available; this does not make the sensor transmit every five seconds. Times use the phone's time zone. Each trip keeps the references saved at its start.

The automatic limit is 100 trips per monitor. When that limit is exceeded, the oldest trip without an unresolved critical alarm is removed. Trips ending with an unresolved critical alarm remain protected from automatic pruning and may take the count above 100. They can still be deleted manually. Export records you want to retain.

1. Open a trip to see pressure and temperature timelines. Select all tires or the tire you want to inspect.
2. Choose a time window or pinch to zoom. Drag left or right to move through the trip; choose Full trip to restore the whole interval.
3. Tap a reading for its time and value. Tap a legend entry to bring an overlapping line forward. Review the displayed minimum, maximum and saved trip pressure references.

Gaps and invalid / unavailable periods stay disconnected. A smooth displayed line does not create additional recorded samples. Empty charts mean no usable readings in that selection; switch tires or restore Full trip before concluding data was lost.

What the trip graph looks like

This actual app capture illustrates pressure and temperature timelines with synthetic sample records. Your graph uses the tire positions, readings and references saved with your trip. Single, dual and triple axle setups are supported.

Read the chart

1. Tires to display: inspect all saved tires or select a position.
2. Time window: choose an interval; Full trip restores the complete recording.
3. Zoom and pan: use + / − or pinch, then drag to inspect another part of the trip.
4. Pressure: compare received readings with the saved trip reference.
5. Temperature: read its timeline separately from pressure.
6. Legend and readings: tap a legend entry to bring a line forward; tap a reading for its time and value.

Missing or invalid periods remain gaps. A line is drawn only from available stored samples.

Share the trip as CSV

1. In Trips History choose Export all trips · CSV, or open a trip and choose Export trip · CSV.
2. Select a destination in the Android share sheet. Check the destination and recipient before sharing sensor IDs, times and measurements.
3. Open the resulting CSV in your chosen spreadsheet or file app. Export includes stored samples, both pressure/temperature unit systems and relevant alert / availability records. It does not fill reception gaps.

Exported copies belong to the destination you choose. Deleting app history cannot remove them.

Use QR Asset Sharing in Settings or the initial layout screen. This transfers the current trailer setup to another phone using the same branded app, without a cloud account.

Create and share

1. Finish and save the trailer setup first.
2. Enter an asset name and choose Create sharing QR. The code contains the vehicle model, axle layout, optional spare, cold-pressure baselines, units and assigned sensor IDs.
3. Show the code to the recipient, or choose Share QR image and select an Android sharing destination. The PNG contains the same checked setup data. Sharing does not need camera permission.

Scan, review and apply

1. Open QR Asset Sharing and choose Scan asset QR. Choose Allow camera when ready and grant Android camera permission. You can go back or close without granting it. If access is blocked, use Open app permissions. The torch control can help in low light.
2. Aim the rear camera at a QR created by the matching branded app. CRC-32 is required and checked before preview. Missing or mismatched checksums, unrelated links, invalid fields, duplicate sensor IDs, unsupported layouts and the other brand's codes are rejected. Use Scan again after an error.
3. Read the preview and independently verify the cold pressures against the vehicle placard and each sensor assignment. The checksum detects changed data; it does not prove who created the code.
4. Check I verified the vehicle placard and sensor assignments, then choose Replace setup with this asset. Cancel import or Close leaves your setup unchanged.
5. Import replaces layout, baseline, units and assignments. Existing Trips History remains on the phone. Imported sensors have no transferred live readings; verify fresh real reception before travel. A one-minute setup quiet period follows import while reception continues.

No photos, video or microphone recordings are taken. Camera preview stops when scanning closes or the app leaves the foreground. History, live measurements, alert overrides, consent and permission decisions are never transferred. Anyone with a QR copy can read its setup and sensor IDs; share it only with the intended recipient. Factory Reset removes app-cached QR images; copies already shared remain with their recipients.

QR code example and app screenshot

The exported PNG and phone screenshot below show how Spartan RV TPMS presents a sharing code.

Example data only. This code is named “QR Bench fixture” and contains a fictitious sensor assignment. It is not your trailer setup or a pressure recommendation. Create a new QR from your own verified setup for an actual transfer.
