Vpi plc question?

First happy holiday to all members. My question is about a Vpi plc that I a using with a Vpi Hw-19 markII. The model I am using has the three digit calibration on the front. I at the moment do not have the manual. I am asking how to calibrate them or does it go according to area and region depending on current flow or? How would I set it for proper 33rpm and 45rpm? Would I just have to set it by chance using a strobe to set the speed? Thank you all.

Should call my buddy with the 19 but the strobe sounds right.Your deck dosen't have a dual notch on external motor for speed change?My guess would be the stobe to be used to check what you have now with the PLC.Or do what everybody say's and pony up for th e better drive controller.Folks always say it's th best upgrade they ever made (and that usually includes listing carts and phono sections).Not cheap at $700 used but whattya' gonna do?I hear it know dials in dead accuarte when checked with the stobe.Call Mike (head tech) at VPI an he'll set you straight (which he has done number of itmes going with cheaper option for my Aries).Not much help bu all the best.
happy Holidays
