Abstract:
1. A method of registering an identifier of a tire air pressure sensor device in a tire air pressure monitoring unit in a vehicle, in which the tire air pressure sensor device is provided for a tire of the vehicle and communicable with the tire air pressure monitoring unit, said method comprising: setting the tire air pressure monitoring unit in an identification registration condition, said identification registration condition allowing the tire air pressure monitoring unit to register the identifier of the tire air pressure sensor device when an unlikely signal is received, said unlikely signal being unlikely to be transmitted under normal circumstances; transmitting the unlikely signal from the tire air pressure sensor device; receiving the unlikely signal by the tire air pressure monitoring unit; and registering, by the tire air pressure monitoring unit, the identifier of the tire air pressure sensor device according to the identification registration condition in response to the receiving of the unlikely signal.
