Re: Helping a friend out...

Using the compressor is dead simple. Use the Solenoid With Compressor Example to find out how to wire things. Copy the Compressor Open and Compressor Start to your project's Begin.vi, followed by a Compressor RefNum Set. In your project's Finish.vi, put a Compressor RefNum Get, the Compressor Stop, and Compressor Close.

The Nason pressure switch is preset to maintain the pressure between 90 and 115 PSI. The rules require you to use it that way, and there is nothing you can do about that. You will get the 60 PSI you need from the "working pressure" regulator.

You will also find the Tank Drive Example useful.
