Abstract
A tire internal pressure monitor ECU is switched between a monitoring mode where internal pressures of tires of a vehicle are monitored, and a registering mode where ID codes assigned to sensor units provided in the tires are registered. In the registering mode, when receiving the ID code from the sensor unit, the ECU registers the ID code along with instructing an auxiliary device to operate a predetermined conduct that can be seen from an outside of the vehicle. Namely, the predetermined conduct of the auxiliary device notifies completion of registering the ID code, which results in enhancing operation efficiency in registering of the ID code.
