Calibrate a CTS288 Rotary Encoder?

I have a BU0836X Leo Bodnar card and the encoder software, but all that does is change the pulse width. Is it possible to calibrate a CTS288 Rotary Encoder like you can calibrate an axis pot?
The encoders work fine, but I can not get any precise accuracy.

They never end up in the same place on the dial of the gauge they are programmed to. A good example is for cowl flaps. If I turn the dial and stop at a certain point, and then turn again and stop at that same point, the needle is not in the same place.

Thanks,
Bill

Anyone have any ideas on this?

Right, this is the same response I gave regarding using encoders for selecting things in a different thread. It saves inputs, but dials and pointers don't match after the first few turns.

Thanks Guys!
