This is one of the improvements made to the Amaya XT. The Color Change is calibrated on each machine as each one has minute differences in the distances between needles and tolerances of parts. There is a procedure that centers each and every needle. There are keys pressed that move the needle case left or right a small distance to do this calibration. The calibration procedure was moving the needle case 2 steps instead of one in one version of the RSA files released for the machine in the version 7.00.055. This version of the file was only shipped to a very few before it was corrected, it was permanently corrected on the CD of the 7.00.056 version. Unless there was a problem where re-calibration of the needle case was needed you would not be effected, and if re-calibration was needed in the 7.00.055 version, a new file was made available that could be sent in an email or downloaded that corrected the double stepping. Even with the double stepping, the settings can made to work so most will never ever realize there is a problem.
