GSP9700 Series Road Force Measurement System Operation 4. Balancing a Wheel 81
4.14 Inflation Station
Inflation Station provides preset tire pressure setting to ensure accurate Road
Force Measurement (before and after matching) and safe assemblies for final
mounting on the vehicle. The GSP9700 can reduce as well as increase the tire
pressure.
NOTE: The Inflation Station is a factory installed feature that is not
on earlier models of the GSP9700.
Lift the hose from the storage position (while in the “Balance” or “Runout & Road
Force” screens) and the Inflation Station screen will automatically pop up.
Upon sensing that the air hose is attached to the valve stem, the tire pressure will
automatically be set to the target air pressure. The target air pressure is set by the
user, by using the control knob.
In cases of a tire with pressure below 15 psi, “Auto-Set Pressure” can be selected to
begin filling.
Press “Hold pressure” or “STOP” at any time to halt auto pressure setting.
Depending on “how far off,” the pressure is and how large the tire, the dialed-in
pressure will usually be reached in three or less air “bursts” or “exhausts.” When the
tire reaches the dialed-in pressure, the on-screen tire graphic will turn green.
The Inflation Station screen exits automatically when you remove the hose from the
valve stem, or if you manually exit via the softkeys.
For safety, spinning is prevented for any of the following conditions: When the
Inflation Station screen is showing, the hose is not at the storage position, or the
hose is pressurized (not disconnected from the valve stem).
