Perhaps this might be a good time to discuss/develop a recommended good 
practice procedure to be applied to a machine w/o PID's as there's none 
in the pi running the sheldon, and none in the D5215MW running the 6040.  

Can you recommend a procedure that Just Works, where the machine is 
expected to follow what the TP actually outputs, with a tolerance 
setting profile that its capable of staying inside of?

Without PID's, where do we get a following error that we can see on the 
halscope?  Or do I need to put PID's in before this makes sense?  Or do 
I make a sub2 out of a sum2 just to develop the error signal?  
Eventually that would use up the cpu cycles saved by not using the 
PID's.  And it all, to me, adds up to more give between the TP and what 
the machine does, allowing more error than w/o the PID.

Seems to me there should be some "rules of thumb" to apply here.
