East Central Ia
We pretty much ignore that part of our Seedstar XP system. It's too slow to react and there is always a sensor off a bit. We set it so we know we have enough downforce to keep the units at desired depth without causing sidewall compaction and go.

You really need to be able to adjust the levels at which it gives a warnings... That blinking is annoying. Especially in no till soybeans... Constant flashing red!

For what's worth we have our margin set at 75lbs in corn and this is the best job planting I think we have ever done. Ground was perfect!

No till beans we have it set around 175lbs of margin and its running around 350lbs of total downforce... No idea the PSI, ours only shows LBS.
