1. A tire pressure monitoring system comprising:

  • a plurality of sensor units, each of which senses a tire pressure of each tire and sends a signal indicative of the sensed tire pressure and an identification code uniquely assigned to each sensor unit; and

    a monitoring unit that receives the signal from the sensor unit and monitors the tire pressure based on the identification code contained in the signal and the sensed tire pressure, wherein the monitoring unit has a register means for registering the stored identification code as an identification code of the sensor unit, the register means receives a signal indicative of an identification code via an external device, stores the identification code, compares the identification code contained in the signal from the sensor unit with the stored identification code, and register the stored identification code as an identification code of the sensor unit.
