Help reading clutch specs

Hi guys -- I have these readings from my Foxwell computer, but I'm not entirely sure what they mean. One was recorded in neutral, one was in first gear. Car is a 2008 Vantage sportshift.

According to ChatGPT, this reading leaves me with around 50% of clutch wear, but I have no idea about its accuracy and honestly unless I bought my car with a brand new clutch (unbeknownst to me), I would have to be at less than 50% just based on the amount of mileage I've put on personally.

Any help would be great.

ragingfool35 is infamous around these parts
turn off AC and start the car holding the brake for 10 sec then read the values. i got low value like 1100 until i used that method. uncertain if that was really the culprit but....
according to VAP new clutch values might be around 1100-1200 new with end of life 1900 ish, but you should try again and maybe consult VAP via phone. Stuart and Chris are great guys
