Adjusting the pedal (pedal calibration)
The first time you use an expression pedal, you must calibrate (adjust)
the pedal so that it will operate optimally.
In some cases, an expression pedal might no longer operate
optimally due to the passage of time or changes in the operating
conditions. If you notice problems such as slight movements of the
pedal causing a major change in volume, or if the video fails to switch
when you press the pedal, you should execute calibration.
