Abstract
A computer based system for adjusting the pressure in pneumatic tires prompts the operator for pressure and vehicle type information. Comparison of vehicle type with predetermined pressure ranges is used to detect erroneously entered pressure values. A display device visually indicates the operation sequence along with displaying pressure and system error and operator error messages. A remote pressure sensor is used together with a intermittent inflation/deflation schedule to permit equalization of the hose and tire pressure without metering valves. Monitoring historical hose pressure is used to detect a number of failure modes.
