5. Adjust control R36 (opposite direction from step 4 above) until the readback value is 0.0
using MEASURE commands (see step 2) as needed. Once a stable value of 0.0 is reached,
continue rotating R36 four full (360°) turns in the same direction. Verify readback current is
0.0 using MEASURE commands (see step 2) as needed.
