If the orthosis is part of a unilateral fitting, this parameter has to be selected.
Bilateral

8.6 Calibration (zero setting)
The individual position of the joint unit has to be calibrated on the patient. If calibration on the patient is omitted,
the swing phase is initiated too early or too late due to incorrect data.
The calibration process must be repeated after every static change on the orthosis (e.g. after adjusting the ankle
joint).
