The speed controllers haven't needed user calibration since the Tekan (spelling?) days. The only time I've ever found it necessary to re-calibrate the Victor 883s was to regain the default calibration. All other calibrations should be done via the joystick. The pots in the joystick, however, aren't always perfect. Far from it, in fact. I use a debug terminal to check the range on the joysticks and, if necessary, adjust their value using software.
