Hi,
 
I purchased a K3 plus internal tvtr K144xv plus Reflock option earlier on this year. I have just discovered that the instructions that came with the tvtr was Revision D dated July 25th 2011 but this had been superseded by Revision D-4 dated July the 14th 2012. Why couldn't the old instructions have been shredded and an upto date one sent out? Or a warning on the old set pointing me in the direction of the update? Anyway, I now wish to re-calibrate the system as per the uprated instructions. This means that the original data needs to be changed back again. How do I do this?  Do I have to go back to the factory settings and start again bearing in mind I do not know the original start point before I altered the offset data (XVn OFS) as per the figure on top of the tvtr module plus the Reflock offset? Is there any other way? If I go back to factory settings what will I need to do in terms of completely re-calibration the rig?
 
I appreciate that this is a complicated question but if only the updates had been included in the packaging I wouldn't be in this situation!
 
Any help appreciated.  Peter G4URT
