Not sure I know what your on about, but I've got a pump for adjusting air assisted front forks. Connects via a car valve fixing and has a very accurate pressure gauge.

i think fournales shocks run at extremely high pressure due to them using the air to act as a spring, so im fairly sure that they need the correct pump to adjust them cos normal airlines dont go gigh enough and front fork air adjustment pumps are designed to add just a very few psi to your suspension, not the 300 or 400psi or so required in the fournales

The pump needs to be able to deliver at least 300psi, albeit at very low volume.
check out the forenales site.

According to this: http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/equipping-bike-whats-best-gear/fournales-suspension-43908

Mountain bikes use something similar?

Jules has the correct pump.
But is having some trouble at the mo,and wishes to try another to see if that makes a difference.
I expect that his shock would need around 40bar.

I know my 900Divi needed 38bar and my Beemer was around 26-30bar.

A compressor wouldnt look at it !
