Should the cross tension be higher?

I've been using Topspin Cyber Flash 1.20 main (50lbs) and OGSM 17 cross (55 lbs) for a while. Usually I restring every 12-15 hours. One thing I notice is that the main appears to have better...

The racquet is 18x20 (babolat Pure Storm ltd GT). I placed the meter at 10th cross (from the bottom) and 9th main (from the right). It was measured when the stringing job was done, by a NEOS 1000. ...

That's exactly what happened, the racquet is a 95 sq / 18x20. The resulting tension is about 10 lbs higher than the tension set on the stringing machine. Nonetheless, the reading is a reference...

How is this compared to ert 300? It seems the way they measure the stringbed is the same, ie, by capturing the string frequency.

I use the stringmeter on the grid, after both the main and cross are done. If I apply it on the main, yes, it is lower than the set tension. I wonder how this discrepancy took place.

Does it mean maintaining consistent pace of sliding the tension head is more important than that of clamping the string ( time gap between tension head locked and putting on the clamp) ?
