that tweak is very slight - I have been putting a little twist pressure on
the pot and can only get it to jump from one side of zero to the other - the
point of diminishing returns is looming close - it is possible I may have to
just live with a .0001-2 offset - oh bother :)

 The result of this discussion just confirms my belief that EMC2 is the best
control software in existence.

  Although if EMC2 would develop a jerk limiter there may applications far
beyond machine control! :) Hand held like a taser and maybe even mobile
mounted on your car. ZAP ZAP ZAP
