SmarTire Questions
I finally got around to playing around with the SmarTire system I got a few weeks ago. It's pretty cool, but I have a few questions...
1) Which displays are available? I have a rather large (well, it seems to be larger than it has to be) video game controller-shaped display with a small LCD with a backlight. The SmarTire web page shows a smaller display, mostly LCD, with an Indiglo-type backlight. Can I trade up? The smaller display looks like it would be easier to mount...
2) The manual is very straightforward as far as the how-to's, but doesn't explain a few things.
a) What is the Temperature Corellation setting supposed to do? What should it be set at?
b) On the display, what is 'Status'? It sometimes shows a value of +/- 1 or +/- 2, but doesn't seem to corespond to the pressure difference from the set value, so how do I read this value?
Thanks for any clarifications...

the status number should be equal to the difference between actual and required pressure values.
The "required" pressure values are user set. When I had my SmartTire system, it was always equal to this difference.
