CALIBRATE TENSION, NUMBER OF POINTS.
Using the up and down arrows select the number of calibration points to which you
will be tensioning the web. The minimum is 5 points. Zero is a calibration point
already set, so you will need to define a minimum of 4 increasing tension values
such as: 50, 100, 150 and 200. If desired you can define more than 5 weight
points, with a maximum of 10 points total. If 10 calibration points were selected the
entries could look something like this: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90.
