How to demount/mount tires on rims with pressure sensor?

Were do you start to demount on the rim equipped with a pressure sensor? Where to you start to mount? What to watch for? Also I use two ways to do this depending on the location I am changing the tire. On the ground with tire irons or with a cheap Harbor Freight tire changer. Any different method between the two?
 
I put the sensor at ~4-5 (as you face the changer), start the tire over the rim at 8-9, the tire is off by the time the bar gets to 2-3. Pretty easy to avoid running the bar over the sensor package. Also easy to avoid putting the tire in the drop enter directly over the sensor.
