Abstract

A method for inflating or deflating an air mattress chamber, includes: receiving a user input; inflating or deflating the air mattress chamber; obtaining pressure measurements corresponding to the air mattress chamber; determining first and second constants corresponding to inflation and deflation of the air mattress chamber; comparing a dynamically-obtained static pressure value to a threshold value; and presenting the dynamically-obtained static pressure value to a user on a display of a user remote. Methods for calculating and updating the first and second constants. A method for performing an offset measurement and latency qualification. A method for controlling an inflate operation of air mattress chamber based on a predetermined motor speed corresponding to a mode of operation. A method of controlling the deflation an air mattress chamber utilizing first and second stage exhaust ports to control an exhaust.
