4. Bedienungsanleitung
4.1 TPMS Functions Overview

Figure 4.1.1: The main menu displaying various TPMS functions available on the LAUNCH CRT5011E, including relearn, activation, diagnosis, programming, and reading ECU IDs.
The CRT5011E offers a comprehensive suite of TPMS functions to manage tire pressure sensors. These include activation, programming, relearning, and diagnostic capabilities.
4.2 TPMS-Sensoraktivierung

Figure 4.2.1: The device being used to activate a TPMS sensor, displaying real-time data such as tire temperature, pressure, battery status, sensor frequency, and ID.
So aktivieren Sie einen TPMS-Sensor:
- Select the "Activate Sensor" option from the TPMS menu.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to position the tool near the tire valve stem.
- The tool will activate the sensor and display information such as sensor ID, tire pressure, temperature, and battery status.
4.3 TPMS-Sensor-Programmierung

Figure 4.3.1: The LAUNCH CRT5011E demonstrating various methods for programming TPMS sensors, including auto create, manual create, and copying ID by activation or OBD.
The CRT5011E can program LAUNCH LTR-01 sensors and other unencrypted sensors. Programming methods include:
- Automatisch erstellen: Generates a new sensor ID automatically.
- Manuelle Erstellung: Allows manual input of a new sensor ID.
- Kopier-ID durch Aktivierung: Kopiert die ID eines bereits aktivierten Sensors.
- Kopie von OBD: Reads sensor IDs from the vehicle's ECU via the OBD port.
Select the desired programming method from the menu and follow the on-screen prompts. The device can program up to 8 LAUNCH LTR-01 sensors simultaneously.
4.4 TPMS-Sensor-Neuanlernen

Figure 4.4.1: Visual representation of the three TPMS relearn methods supported by the LAUNCH CRT5011E: OBD Relearn, Automatic Relearn, and Stationary Relearn.
After replacing or programming TPMS sensors, they must be relearned to the vehicle's ECU. The CRT5011E supports three relearn procedures:
- OBD-Anlernen: Connects to the vehicle's OBD port to transfer new sensor IDs directly to the ECU.
- Automatisches Neulernen: For vehicles that can automatically learn new sensor IDs after a drive cycle.
- Stationäres Wiederlernen: Requires the vehicle to be in a specific "learn mode" and sensors to be triggered in a specific order.
Select the appropriate relearn method for your vehicle and follow the detailed on-screen instructions.
4.5 TPMS-Diagnose

Figure 4.5.1: The device displaying options to read and clear TPMS Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and reset the TPMS warning light on the dashboard.
The diagnostic function allows you to read and clear TPMS-related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and reset the TPMS warning light. Connect the tool to the vehicle's OBDII port and navigate to the TPMS diagnostic menu.
4.6 OBDII-Diagnose

Abbildung 4.6.1: Ein Überview of the full OBDII diagnostic functions available on the LAUNCH CRT5011E, including reading/erasing codes, I/M readiness, live data, and more.
The CRT5011E also functions as a full OBDII code reader for engine system diagnostics. Connect the device to the vehicle's OBDII port (usually located under the dashboard).
- Codes lesen: Retrieves Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from the vehicle's ECU.
- Codes löschen: Löscht Fehlercodes (DTCs) und schaltet die Motorkontrollleuchte (MIL) aus.
- I/M-Bereitschaft: Überprüft den Status von emissionsbezogenen Überwachungssystemen.
- Datenstrom: Displays real-time data from various sensors.
- View Freeze Frame: Shows a snapshot of operating conditions when an emission-related fault occurred.
