Sensor ID registration method for tire air pressure monitoring apparatus

摘要

The present invention relates to a sensor ID registration for a tire air pressure monitor including a sensor unit built in each of tires of a vehicle and a receiver mounted in a vehicle body for monitoring the in-tire air pressure. The registration is conducted through using a control unit and a registration unit, provided for each vehicle manufacturing line. A different control unit number is allocated to each of the control units and transmitted from the control unit to the receiver. Moreover, a specific number identical to the number is transmitted from the registration unit to the sensor unit and data including a sensor ID and the specific number is transmitted from the sensor unit. The receiver registers the sensor ID when the specific number and the control unit number agree with each other. This achieves accurate ID registration without registering an ID of another vehicle in error.
