CONTROLLER FOR TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A controller for a tire pressure monitoring system, wherein the tire pressure monitoring system includes a sensor unit arranged in each tire, the controller comprising a control unit that receives an information signal related to tire air pressure and tire temperature from the sensor unit and generates a warning indicating a pressure decrease when determining from the information signal that the tire air pressure of the tire corresponding to the sensor unit is less than or equal to a threshold,wherein the control unit is configured to notify a user when determining from the information signal received subsequent to pressure adjustment of the corresponding tire that the tire air pressure of the corresponding tire would be excluded from a recommended pressure range as the present tire temperature changes to a monitoring subject temperature.

Abstract
A controller for a tire pressure monitoring system includes a control unit that receives information signal related to tire air pressure and tire temperature from a sensor unit arranged in each tire. The control unit notifies a user when determining from the information signal received subsequent to pressure adjustment of the corresponding tire that the tire air pressure of the corresponding tire would be excluded from a recommended pressure range as the present tire temperature changes to a monitoring subject temperature.
