  • Why are you closing the video threads?

    Posted by Dick on June 17, 2015 at 5:21 pm

    I really like the videos. They are very good.

    Why have you chosen to close the threads after posting the videos? What if we have quesitons about the videos?

    Like … on the pressure pro video, how difficult is it to change from a toad to a trailer (both with PP sensors)? Will the PP monitor automatically sense one vs the other?

    How easy it is to set pressures at which you want to be warned? For example. Let’s say you have a tire that you inflate to 100psi and you want to be told by the system when that tire gets to 93psi. Can you program the PP sensor to do that? If so, how do you do it?

    We might have quesitons that need clarifying answers, or the response might be a new video or an enhancement (edit) to an existing video.

    Keep up the good work!

    Dick,

    The video topic needs to stay closed and not get all bogged down with hundreds of replies or new posts. Anything relating to the video’s can be handled under the appropriate topic such as this one, chassis or other depending on subject.

    There are two levels of low pressure warning, the 1st at 12.5% of baseline and the 2nd at 25% of baseline.

    The only way to monitor both a trailer and toad with sensors on each is with the new Pulse Monitor. The standard 16W will only monitor one tow.

    Thanks Tom!

    Say I run the tires at 100psi and I set the PP monitor for 100psi.I know that I’ll get the first warning at 87.5psi and the second warning at 75psi.

    So if I want a warning sooner … say at 95, then I should set the PP monitor for a higher number … say 107.

    Correct? But doesn’t that also move the first warning on the upside to 12.5% above the new target of 107?

    Does the new PP monitor automatically sense what has been hooked to the coach? Will it be able to automatically differentiate between the toad and the trailer? I guess what I’m saying is it smart enough to know which sensors its reading …. sensors on the toad or sensors on the trailer.

    The high pressure alert is adjustable, the low pressure is not.

    The monitor would read the last tow you had programmed.

    The Pulse solves that problem and you can have multiple tows programmed and all you do is select the one your towing.

    I don’t own a Pressure Pro, nor do I understand how they work, but if I had the PP and wanted an alert prior to a 12.5% loss of air I would set the initial pressure higher than needed. Let’s say I have a 100 PSI requirement, but want to be alerted at 95. I would set the pressure at 108.5 and let the system see that as the set point. Then I would deflate the pressure to 100, and at 87.5% of 108.5 (95 PSI) the pressure pro would alert.
