Stav brzdového systému lze sledovat na ciferníku manometrů, které jsou obvykle umístěny v kabině hnacího vozidla. Hlavní vzduchojem by měl být vždy pod vysokým tlakem, až 8 barů a je automaticky doplňován kompresorem. Provozní tlaky v brzdovém potrubí se pohybují mezi 3,5 bary při plném brždění a 5 bary při úplném uvolnění (protože manometry zobrazují tlaky relativně k atmosférickému tlaku, skutečné absolutní tlaky jsou přibližně o 1 bar vyšší, než je uvedeno na manometru). Tlak v brzdovém válci se pohybuje mezi 0 a 3,75 baru a představuje skutečnou brzdnou sílu působící na kola. Jelikož je na manometrech někdy více ručiček, tlak v brzdovém válci je obvykle znázorněn červenou ručičkou na manometru brzdového potrubí.

Main reservoir pressure should always be at, or near, 8 bar, and it is automatically refilled by the compressor .

Brake pipe operating pressures are between 3.5 bar when the brake is fully applied and 5 bar when it is fully released. Brake pipe pressure is usually represented by a black or white needle on the brake pipe gauge, and its pressure is controlled by the train brake control device.

Brake cylinder pressure goes between 0 and 3.75 bar and represents the actual braking force applied to the wheels . Brake cylinder pressure is usually represented by a red needle on the brake pipe gauge.

Since gauges display pressures relative to the atmospheric pressure, the actual absolute pressures are approximately 1 bar higher than what's indicated on the gauge and used in technical documentation.

For better brake cylinder reading visibility, there is a Brake Cylinder LED Bar gadget , which can be bought in one of the shops .
