TD-12: Calibrating the VH-11

Calibrating the VH-11 is crucial for optimum trigger results and functionality. We recommend calibrating the VH-11 on a regular basis. Use the following procedure to do so:

1. Turn on the TD-12.
2. Release the hihat clutch and let the VH-11 pad rest on the motion sensor (foot off of the pedal). 
3. Press and hold the KIT button and then press the TRIGGER button. You can release them after the Hihat Trigger menu is displayed. 
4. Turn the OPEN/CLOSE knob on the top of the VH-11 until the indicator between the two vertical lines highlights the two left and right arrows in the TD-12's display.
   
   
   - If the indicator is below the arrows, turn the nut clockwise.
   - If the indicator is above them, turn the nut counterclockwise.
   - Note that it may take several rotations until the indicator starts to move. Also, the nut may get tight, which is normal.
5. When you're finished, press the KIT button to exit, then raise the VH-11 pad and tighten the clutch.
