Once you get it working with 2 sets of wheels/tpms IDs stored, do you need to use the PC software each time, or just push the winter/summer button?

I have not yet used the tool when making the switchover from my winter tires back to my summer tires. However, I believe when switching over from either summer or winter tires back to the previous season's tires, it's only necessary to connect the QuickSet tool to your vehicle's OBD port, after the replacement set of tires are reinstalled, and press the appropriate button icon corresponding to the replaced set of tires now installed. I will be doing that in a few months when I revert to my "summer" tires. As previously mentioned, the instruction book in my opinion, is very poorly written and isn't clear on this procedure.

Just push the button. You can have up to 4 cars in the PC program, and switch the sets stored in the device, and edit the stored codes for those in the computer, but the quickest itself will only keep two sets in itself at a time, along with the programming protocol for one of the four vehicles.

As long as you're only using it with a single car, you only need the PC when you set it up (or make a change). Everything else is done with the summer/winter button.

Just push the winter/summer button once id's are stored in unit. Unit holds winter/summer data for one car, so only need PC if you're swapping on two or more different vehicles.

I used a Microsoft Surface Pro with Windows 8 64 bit. Downloaded drivers online and it worked perfectly to program both my summer and winter TPMS sensors - Honda Fit 2008 Sport.

You have to have a software program on your computer. If you have it then don't worry about buying a program. If you do need a software program then be sure it is compatible with the pedal.

i could not get it to work. I think my unit has a defective aileron switch but the program itself is not compatible. If you have any kind of older windows XP comp that would be better that way, you can run FMS program for free, which DOES work. Otherwise you are pretty much stuck with having to pay for one of the more expensive simulator programs.

The literature says it uses Tyre for its route planning. Tyre is not Mac compatible. I am not sure if Tom Tom's maps and firmware uploading software is Mac compatible. I use Tyre because its simpler than Basecamp, but its a bummer its not Mac compatible.

I had to play around with my pc settings for the camera. I have a built in camera and just had to switch it to recognize the device. A few times in the past I need to have the program disk in my pc, probably because it doesn't seem to say installed on its own. And I would need it again now if I wanted to use it..

Yes you do. follow the directions. It took a while before it started to work. Had to drive in circles quite a few times.

If you haven't downloaded the firmware tool I would get that and get the latest firmware installed. I haven't had good luck with the steel series engine software....but you can run the mouse without that. My mouse misbehaves if I use the steelseries engine software.....may be a bug in the program or my system.

I've never had 2 working simultaneously, but are you able to try the second on on a different computer? Maybe it's one per program. Are you using there software for this?

Yes. Just instaled de new sensor in the tire. Then you have to relearn the 4 tires before, because the TPMS Machine. Need to have in the memory the 4 tire test. After that. Just conect the obd2 cable. And the machine go to ask. Write sensors ID. and go click YES. In the screen you will see the live data. And. Done.

I believe you can just download the software BUT if something happens to your machine and you need to reload it on a new machine before the year is out, I think you'll be required to buy another license. I prefer to actually have the disc so I have options at a later date.

No you do not, you do have have the box hooked up to your PC via the included cable before you can download the software version required for your vehicle

No it will not you can get the ID from the TPMS but you will need a scanner to write the IDS into the ECU Autel does make a all in one tool but it will cost you a lot more
