Default A/C Compressor Working Now

I replaced the OTS so my Dual readout now shows the correct outside temp. The comp clutch did not engage when the A/C button was pressed it went into the 5 flashes then off. Decided to put more refrigerant in the low side. The comp came on but wasn't cold. How much refrigerant do I put in ? I still have 3/4 bottle.

Thanks,

Jim

Using A/C PRO with gauge
