You will need to keep track of them. They need to be put back in the same wheel that they came from unless you want to go to the dealer to have them recalibrated.

I read in this forum that the dealer had to reactivate the TPS. You're saying that's not true as long as they're reinstalled on the same wheel?

As long as they're installed in the same wheel position, no dealership visit is required.

If you move them around (or get new ones), then you need to visit the dealership to get them activated for the proper location.

Does Cipher have that ability?

Be sure to fill out a TPS report in triplicate if you decide to do this.
