That type of bug/issue would be with RR itself as the brightness(dimmer) is a built in RR feature now and there are only a small handful of areas that mess with it in the skin. This not being one of them. You should mention which release your using for other users to comment on if they have the same issue with that release or a different one.
Rr 10-4-10, dfx5.03
I just want to summarize how to get the TPMS working in DFX v5.03.
Some earlier posts had most of it down, but some things were missing.
John, perhaps you can use this for the next release of DFX5 update.
In addition to this fix, it would also be a good idea to have the cancel-alert button show that it is activated (currently it has not inidication). Perhaps something similar to what Robby had (a blinking red light on the button).
Firstly...I can confrim 100% that this is working correctly.
- sensors are displayed and updating live information correctly
- battery meters are also displaying the battery levels of each sensor
- alerts (visual and voice) are also triggered correclty for all 4 tires
- cancel alert button seems to work
Step1
a) copy the following TPMS files to "c:\Program Files\RideRunner\Plugins\TPMS\", or wherever you installed your RideRunner.
-Important thing is that these files go into the "RideRunner\Plugins\TPMS" folder.
b) TPMS Files to copy: "RRTMS.dll", "RRTMS.INI", "RRTMS Config.exe"
step2
a) you need to register the rrtms module to the new dir location.
b) open a command prompt (START ==> RUN ==> Type cmd ==> ENTER\OK)
c) change dir to where the rrtms.dll is.
-So in the command prompt type: cd "c:\Program Files\RideRunner\Plugins\TPMS\"
-(note, its a good idea to include the quotation marks around the dir name)
d) now register the TPMS module:
-in the command prompt type: regsvr32 RRTMS.dll
e) run "RRTMS Config.exe" to confirm it is picking up your existing TPMS settings.
step3
a) Change the order of the slider code in the TMS.ini screen.
Looke for this line: "Y01,"slider_battery\SLIDER_*.gif"
and move it up to the top of the battery location section:
The final code should look like this:
PHP Code:
Y01,"slider_battery\SLIDER_*.gif
S01,174,460,90,34,559,77,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATTERY_RR",""
S02,683,460,90,34,156,77,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATTERY_FR",""
S03,174,88,90,34,559,532,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATTERY_RL",""
S04,683,88,90,34,156,532,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATTERY_FL",""
That should cover it. Hope i didn't miss anything.
:buddy:
aahhh...:doh:...damn carriage-returns.
The finl code should not stuck together like it is above.
Should be on its own line.
SO....The final code should look like this:
Y01,"slider_battery\SLIDER_*.gif
S01,174,460,90,34,559,77,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATT ERY_RR",""
S02,683,460,90,34,156,77,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATT ERY_FR",""
S03,174,88,90,34,559,532,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATT ERY_RL",""
S04,683,88,90,34,156,532,47,34,H,01,"",0,"TMS_BATT ERY_FL",""
Nice tutorial. I will add an indicator for the TPMS warning for the next release.
I edited your post for you, so the carriage returns are corrected.
Just a note, you can click on the "Edit" button below any posts that you make, and correct mistakes.

How do i make the time and date show in the center window regardless of layout? I want to have them show on the playlist layout.
Edit your "Menu-Playlist.txt" file to the following:
PHP Code:
INC,DFX_Font_Color.txt
L,248,140,303,27,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,15,#DFXFont#,"BYVAR;TimeDateStatus;<<TIME","CENTER"
IL,PL,TRANSPARENT.BMP,SEL.BMP,END.BMP,2,50,80
S01,249,170,301,268,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,0,0,0,TRUE,20,#DFXFont#
L,246,440,303,21,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,15,#DFXFont#,"BYVAR;TimeDateStatus;<<DATE","CENTER"
Perfect! :clap2::clap2:Quote:

Might be a bug, probably not, I tried to figure this out but no luck. The gauges and RR Trafficcams don't like to work nice with each other I guess. It seems that one or the other will work, but not at the same time. It might be a COM Port issue? When gauges work I get an error popup box for Traffic cams----> "RRTrafficCam Run-Time error'11' Division by zero". Then I opened trafficcams and none of my favorite cameras displayed. I even tried to change the virtual ports in Xport. I went up thru 15 and still get this error. iGuidance works ok. No problems with GPS. My puck is in #3 port, my iGuidance is set #4, my settings in RRConfig is set to port #5. And Xport is set to #3 for puck and #4,5 for virtual ports. #6 HD radio. I even added more vports #7,8. I still get that error and not showing anything in trafficcam plug. Also when I take the rrtrafficcam plugin out of plugins folder in RR, the gauges work fine with iGuidance. I think I described this problem right? Please help. I'm at a lost here. banghead Thank you in advance.
