preferred method. Although if you are used to using Simple mode you
can still activate it by following these instructions.

10. Move the joystick up/down followed by MIDDLE JOYSTICK
BUTTON or ENTER or press the 1 BUTTON to select the
10 minute calibration or press the 2 BUTTON to select the
30 minute calibration followed by the MIDDLE JOYSTICK
BUTTON or ENTER to confirm.
NOTE:
You can run either a 10 minute or 30 minute calibration. The longer the
calibration time, the more accurate the results.
11. Make sure the slider motor is positioned to your left and move
the carriage to the left side (closest to the motor) of the track
using the joystick.
This procedure requires measuring the distance the slider moves
from start point to end point. The easiest way to do this is to move the
carriage all the way to the end of the track (point A), run the calibration,
then measure the gap between point A and point B when complete.
