ACK Technoligies A-30 encoder - Mar 2004

I've had my encoder adjusted recently. As far as I can tell, it's simply a
matter of looking at what it's broadcasting to a piece of test equipment, and
twisting a couple screws. "Recalibration paramaters"?  What's that about?

Folks

I've an ACK Technologies A-30 encoder fitted to my Ximango. Lately it has started to report a 500 ft lower altitude than actual. I have someone who has access to equipment that can recalibrate it for me but he says he needs the recalibration parameters. Does anyone have this inforamtion already?
