Our team is using this switch, and I have a question...

Do we HAVE to wire it up to the RC thrugh the digital inputs or can we just wire it in series with the compresser. The latter would be 1000 times easer, safer, and save about 5 feet of wire. I just have it:

(12v+) --> (COMMON)
(NC) --> (COMPRESSER +)
(COMPRESSER -) --> (12v GND)

and that seems to work fine, it shuts off at 115 psi and there is no programing required. Did I make a big mistake or is this acceptable? thanks in advance - Jacob
