Default "Zeroing Shocks" - DSC Controller

I just received my DSC unit. It did not come with any instructions, but I've downloaded the installation instructions from the website.

I've seen several people mention the need to "zero" the shocks, but I haven't come across any information as to how this is done. Can anyone enlighten me?

Check out the thread: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...ervations.html

Basically you load the USB drivers and controller software on your laptop. Install the controller, and connect a 90 degree USB cable long enough to get your lap top in the driver seats. Bring up the software. Open the file you would like to use that you downloaded from the DSC web site (file ==> Open). Then under setting you will see a Zero Travel Button. Make sure you are sitting in the driver's seat. Hit that button. Then you can Tools ==> Write All to load the file you opened to the controller. Then I was told to do a Tools ==> Reset board to make it start using the new file.

Hope this helps.

Well crap, if you have to do all of that then I did mine wrong.

The setup guide for this thing really needs some work.

Do a search on youtube for "DSC Sport Controller" and you'll find a bunch of videos about installing the software, etc.

You might need to search down through all the videos to find this one, but here's a video where Michael is doing the zero rid height procedure:
