1. A measuring unit to be fitted on a tire/wheel assembly installed in a vehicle, comprising:
- a pressure sensor;
a signal transmitter; and
a logic indicator with two states;
active and inactive,wherein the logic indicator enters the active state each time the pressure sensor measures a tire pressure below a given threshold,wherein the given threshold is close to zero, indicating that the tire pressure is close to atmospheric pressure,wherein, when the logic indicator is in the active state, a signal is transmitted by the signal transmitter, andwherein the logic indicator is operational when the vehicle is started up.

7. A system for monitoring pressure in a tire of a vehicle, the system comprising:
-
a central unit with a receiver and a processor, and a measuring unit that includes; a pressure sensor, a signal transmitter, and a logic indicator with two states;
active and inactive,wherein the logic indicator enters the active state each time the pressure sensor measures a tire pressure below a given threshold, wherein the given threshold is close to zero, indicating that the tire pressure is close to atmospheric pressure, wherein, when the logic indicator is in the active state, a signal is transmitted by the signal transmitter to the central unit, and wherein the logic indicator is operational when the vehicle is started up. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
