Can you turn off the TPMS sensor when you air down? My last off road capable vehicle was an 84 Bronco, and TPMS wasn’t a thing.

I have an aftermarket programmer for my Jeep that allows you to set the TPMS alarm threshold to whatever value you'd like... If similar functionality isn't baked into the user options on the Bronco, my hope is that the aftermarket will eventually find a solution.In my Jeep the TPMS always reads the instantaneous air pressure. When I air down the visual alarm comes in but I can still reads the individual pressures. I leave the display to air pressure when wheeling to let me see if I am get a flat. I also have a AEV pro cal that connects to the OBD port. You can use this to turn off the TPMS but then it reads 0 pressure so I never run it that way.
When I air down to 18 psi the TPMS alarms once, I acknowledge it and continue to read air pressures. Hopefully the Bronco version works similar.
This would be an excellent feature! Its probably something that could be done by Ford as software update down the road?I was hoping that if you went into any of the off road modes, it would disable the low pressure alert and just monitor.
