Abstract

A method is used to identify a plurality of tires of a motor vehicle by location allowing a sensed parameter of each of the plurality of tires to be monitored. The method incorporates the use of a central receiver, a plurality of sensors, a plurality of transmitters and a mobile training unit. The method includes the steps of moving the mobile training unit to a location adjacent one of the plurality of tires. Once there, the operator inputs manually the location of one of the plurality of tires with respect to the motor vehicle. The mobile training unit transmits the location to the adjacent sensor. The sensor identification is paired with the location in the sensor to create paired data. The method concludes with transmitting the paired data from the sensor to the central receiver allowing the central receiver to identify one of the plurality of tires by the paired data when the transmitter of one of the plurality of tires transmits a signal based on the identification signal and the parameter sensed by one of the plurality of sensors.
