Airmatic lowering issues

I'm trying to lower my car for when I take it to the track soon, and I've run into a bit of a problem.
I lowered it to a level I like but when saving it, Das rejects it.
I want to set my front left to 3.00, right to 2.00, and rear to 2.80, and Das says the limits are between 2.00 and 3.00
But it rejects it saying it's out of range.

The rear is also split between left and right for the initial values, but as one for the actuation? So I just put the 2.80 for both, is this correct?

I've also tried 2.80,2.20,and 2.80 as well, but nope.

Nvm I figured out that I'm dumb
Need some sort of an incline angle finder that costs $4000
Is there a diy way to do it without the meter? Or I'm just going to guess at it until it looks good

But I want to just do it from a laptop instead of having to jack up the car and swap the links.

Ok I figured it out. I just adjust the car until it gets to the height I want and then just put 4.8 for FR/FL and -1.5 for RR/RL and it mostly stays where I want it.
So I just have a set of voltages for high and low setting now and I can just set it to them and go.
