Hi all ,
When I tune the lower G# to A pull using the sweetened tuning it is flat especially as you go further up the neck .I have deliberately made sure the bar is parallel with the fret .Any suggestions?

I think.
There are one set of presets for open strings and another for pedals and levers.
My understanding is OE9 is for pedals up and the Es are sharp. SE9 is for pedals down tuning the Es.

It is always good to double check and find what you like best. I use the U12 and U12P.
Mileage may vary.

I've had a StroboPlusHD for just two months, and using SE9/SP9. Jack, thanks for the "A+B down together" tip!

My understanding is that SE9 is for open strings, SP9 for pedals and levers.

It's the same Open/Pedals arrangement for SE9/SP9, OE9/OP9, and EM9/EP9, each pair having their own unique set of sweetened offsets.

My JE9 and JK9 can be downloaded. JE9 combines SE9 and SP9 into one program (all except the 4th string F# raise which is in JKL). JE9 also has several common changes such as first string G# that wasn't included in the 40 year old Newman charts. There is also my JC6 for C6th that combines the Newman opens and pedal/knees into one.

Thanks, Jack. I would love to do that.
I purchased my tuner used from a forum member. I can't use Peterson's configuration tool because the device is paired with his product registration. I sent a message to Peterson to see if there is a work around.
