Before You Begin – Charge Battery and Download App
1. Prior to installing and using the Tire Linc
™
Auto repeater, it
is recommended to fully charge the device battery to 100%.
- Repeater should be charged for a minimum of four hours prior to initial pairing.
- If repeater battery is below 25%, pairing of the repeater could be disrupted.
Use the included charging harness and plug the USB-A connector into the included charging brick and plug
into a 120V receptacle. Plug in and screw onto repeater terminal; red LED should illuminate for five seconds.
Condition Temperature Estimated Battery Life
Ideal 73°F / 23°C 5.5 days (8 hrs of use per day)
High 122°F / 50°C 5 days (8 hrs of use per day)
Low 14°F / -10°C 3 days (8 hrs of use per day)
2. Download the OneControl®Auto app

Step 1 – Select Repeater Power Method
Tire Linc™Auto offers two options for supplying power to the repeater:
1. Continuous 12V power harness, which includes a splice-in pigtail cable for 12V power supply.
2. Portable battery powered with included USB charging cable and 120V wall-charging brick.
Step 2 – Identify Mounting Location and Install Repeater Mounting Plate
1. The repeater should be mounted on the
trailer frame, exterior trailer wall or inside
a trailer compartment as low, forward and
centered to the tow vehicle as possible
to avoid damage. Be sure to mount in
a location where the repeater is easily
accessible and can be removed.
2. Vertically orient the mounting plate and
secure it to a flat surface of the trailer with four
self-tapping T10 head screws, #8 x 1" (refer
to the image to the right for proper orientation).
Do not overtighten screws.
Note:
1. The mounting plate should be in a location
where the repeater can be easily removed -
a mounting plate that is too close to the
trailer frame or other obstructions may
be difficult or impossible to remove.
2. For splice-in installation, locate a
mounting area that allows connection
of the Tire Linc Auto repeater to the
trailer’s power source without creating
a strain on the completed connection.
Helpful Tip: The -db value that is broadcast
to the app from the repeater may be used to
select the best mounting location. The -db
value should be as close to 0 as possible.
This -db value can be found during
repeater pairing in step 4 of the pairing
repeater and initial app setup.

Step 4 – Splice into Power Source (if applicable)
For splice-in installation, make
sure the power to the trailer is off.
Screw in the terminal end into the
repeater's power connector port as shown.
Connect the charging harness’s red power wire
and black ground wire to the trailer’s power
and ground as shown in the images to the right.
Step 5 – Secure Repeater to Mounting Plate
1. Once the mounting plate is installed, slide
the repeater into the mounting plate using
the T-channel on the back of the repeater.
2. Slide the repeater down the mounting
plate until engaged with the mounting
plate tab. A 'click' will be heard as
the tab is engaged with the repeater.
3. To disconnect, push the tab rearward,
toward the trailer, to release the repeater. Slide
the repeater away from the tab to dis-engage
and separate from the mounting plate.
Step 1
After the battery is fully charged, tap
the CTF (capacitive touch function) button
on the front of the device to 'wake' it up.
The repeater will power on and the FI (Function
Indicator) LED will illuminate red for 5 seconds
to indicate the repeater has power.
PAIRING REPEATER & INITIAL APP SETUP
Step 2
After the OneControl
®
Auto app has been downloaded, select the OneControl
®
Auto icon to launch the app.
Step 3
Read and agree to the license agreement. Follow the prompts in the app for connecting
to an existing account or create a new account if this is your first OneControl
®
Auto device.

Step 2
Next, define a custom trailer profile,
identifying the number of axles and tires.
At the bottom screen, there will be two buttons:
- add (2) tires per axle
- add (4) tires per axle.
Identify the front or first row axle tire
quantity and select the amount. Repeat
the same selections for all additional axles
on the trailer. Once the trailer axle and
tires quantities are defined, you will
be led to the 'Pair Sensors' page.
Step 4
From the OneControl
®
Auto Home Page,
select 'Pair Device' under the Tire Linc
™
icon.
On the 'Devices Found' screen, the app
should display any available repeaters that
are in range. If there is more than one in
close proximity, select the device ID with
the decibel (-db) value closest to 0.
Select and tap the desired device ID and
then tap the 'Connect' button. Once pairing
is successful, a notification will appear
stating the process is complete. The
app will return back to the home page.
Step 1
To begin, under the Tire Linc
™
icon, select the 'Open' button and then the 'Set-Up' button to begin the tire sensor pairing process.

Step 3
With the ‘Pair Sensors’ screen active (shown
to the right), have the stem sensors available
to install on the tire stems and remove
any existing stem caps from the tires.
Note: If using the lock nuts as a theft deterrent,
add the lock nuts to the tire stems but make
sure there is room to add the sensors. Lock
nuts will be tightened later. The lock nuts are
optional and are not required to be installed.
A. Tap the tire you'd like to pair.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT have the
tire sensor screwed on prior to
selecting the 'Connect' button.
B. Tap 'Connect'.
C. Screw on and fully tighten the tire sensor.
Note: It may take up to 90 seconds
for the sensor to awake and be found.
If the sensor is not seen within 90 seconds,
unscrew the sensor from the tire stem, wait
approximately 10 seconds and then reinstall
the sensor. Do NOT proceed to install any other
sensors until the app shows the sensor found.
D. After the sensor has been found,
proceed to the next tire and repeat steps
A through C until all sensors are paired.
Note: When pairing has been completed,
the high and low pressure limits of the
tires are estimated at +/- 20%, respectively,
from the last received sensor data.
Make sure sensors are not removed during
the pairing process or the default pressure
limit values will be incorrectly estimated.
Pressure and temperature limits can
be set manually through the app
after pairing has been completed.
NOTICE
Data is transmitted to the repeater when stem
sensors are under pressure when tires are:
• Moving/rotating, every one minute
• Not moving/not rotating, every 15 minutes
• In emergency scenarios (i.e. blowouts
or dramatic leaks), reports very quickly

Adjusting Tire Sensors
By tapping an individual tire, the app will
display a 'Tire Configuration' page. Here,
you can view details and tire sensor information
and adjust tire sensor settings individually.
To adjust all tire sensor settings at one
time, select the 'Configure All Sensors'
menu on the Tire Linc
™
main screen.
Below is a brief description of each
configurable tire sensor settings:
A. Minimum Pressure: configure the
desired minimum PSI before alert is activated
(typically the lower PSI value listed on tires).
B. Maximum Pressure: configure the
desired maximum PSI before alert is activated
(typically the higher PSI value listed on tires).
C. Maximum Temperature: configure
the maximum temperature before alert is
activated. Information located on tire.
D. Maximum Temperature Change Limit:
posts the currently programmed maximum
+/- temperature change limit for the selected
tire. The app defaults to a 60°F.
