Exclamation N2 and tire pressure sensor question

Hi all,
This morning I got the tire pressure warning on my way to work, so I decided to stop by the tire shop to have them checked out. To make a long story short, I noticed they had N2 available to fill my tires, so I did. Now my question is, since air and N2 have different mass would it affect the tire pressure monitoring system? If so, how? Please let me know.

Tires Plus in Wellington, FL. They charged $8.00 per tire and they will re-inflate the tires for as long as I own them.

Air mass does not affect final pressure. If you aim for 35 the pump will take all factors into account.

well, how about if I correct myself and exchange the word mass with the word density? Would that make a difference then?

what are the benefits of having nitrogen in your tires?
