Abstract

A determination is made as to whether a frame to be transmitted according to a first protocol is susceptible to being incorrectly interpreted by a receiver in a vehicle as being transmitted according to a second protocol. When the frame is determined to be susceptible to an incorrect interpretation, an internal value of the frame is adjusted, and the adjustment is effective to prevent an incorrect interpretation of the frame being transmitted from the tire pressure monitor to the receiver. The adjusted frame can then be transmitted.
