First of all you need to program it as said above. Second of all you need to connect the red tether cable from the Robot Controller (RC) (from 'tether' connection) to the Operator Interface (OI) (to the 'tether' connection).
Now, when you switch the power on (the RC is connected to the circuit and gets power), it'll start working. It will reach 115 PSI and the pressure switch will turn its boolean position. This will make the program to stop the compressor until the pressure gets under 95 PSI.
Be sure to connect the pressure switch with a PWM cable to a digital input on the RC.
