2.1 구성요소 및 특징
The VXSCAN OEC-T5 tool features a simple design for ease of use. Key components include:
- Operational Tell-tale (TX LED): Indicates when the tool is transmitting a signal.
- Battery Power Display LED (LOWBAT): Illuminates when the battery level is low, indicating a need for replacement.
- 작동 키: The primary button used to activate the tool and send the relearn signal.
- Battery Container: Houses the 9V battery required for operation.

4. 설정
4.1 배터리 설치
The VXSCAN OEC-T5 tool requires a new 9V battery for operation. The battery is not included with the device.
- Locate the battery compartment on the rear of the tool (refer to Image 2.1).
- 배터리 덮개를 엽니다.
- 올바른 극성을 확인하여 새로운 9V 배터리를 삽입합니다.
- 배터리 덮개를 단단히 닫으세요.
If the LOWBAT LED illuminates during use, replace the battery with a new 9V battery to ensure optimal performance.
5. Operating Instructions: TPMS Relearn Procedure
The TPMS relearn procedure is typically required after tire rotation, sensor replacement, or when the tire pressure alarm is active. Follow these steps to activate and match your TPMS sensors:

5.1 Three-Step Relearn Process
- 학습 모드로 들어가기:
Ensure your vehicle is in the TPMS "learning mode." The method to enter this mode varies by vehicle model. Typically, this involves navigating through the vehicle's infotainment or driver information center menu. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions. Once in learning mode, the vehicle's horn may sound twice, or a message like "Tire pressure learning mode" will display.
- Read Tire Pressure Sensor Information (Left Front Wheel):
로 시작 left front wheel, position the VXSCAN OEC-T5 tool close to the tire valve stem, against the sidewall of the tire. Press and hold the Operating Key on the tool. The tool's TX LED will illuminate, indicating it is transmitting. Hold the tool in place until the vehicle's horn sounds once, confirming the sensor has been read.
- Read Remaining Sensors (Clockwise):
Proceed to the other three tires in a clockwise direction:
- Right Front Wheel
- 오른쪽 뒷바퀴
- 왼쪽 뒷바퀴
Repeat the process from Step 2 for each wheel. After the final tire's sensor is successfully read, the vehicle's horn will sound twice, indicating the completion of the relearn procedure.

5.2 Correct Tool Positioning
For optimal signal transmission and successful sensor activation, hold the tool close to the tire valve stem. The ideal position is typically 90 degrees or 180 degrees relative to the valve stem, pressed against the tire sidewall. Avoid holding the tool too far away or at an incorrect angle, as this may prevent the sensor from activating.

6. 유지관리
- 배터리 교체: Replace the 9V battery when the LOWBAT indicator illuminates to ensure consistent performance.
- 청소: 부드럽고 마른 천으로 도구를 닦으십시오. 독한 화학 약품이나 연마성 세척제 사용은 피하십시오.
- 저장: Store the tool in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- 습기를 피하세요: Do not expose the tool to water or excessive moisture.
