4.5.2 Scripted Valve Offsets
Scripted Valve Offsets (SVO) allows you to customize the Valve Offsets routine to fit your particular
setup needs. You can use one of the standard scripts included with FmXP, or make one of your own (refer
to “Setup Scripts Options” in Online Help). SVO also allows you to stop at any point in the routine, and
finish it later during the same FmXP session without having to start from the beginning.
