Run the shaft at a constant speed and look at the Tors signal: it must be '''flat''', with '''no spike once per revolution''', and its mean value must match the speed given by another sensor. If not, see the typical mistakes below.

!Mistake!!What is entered!!What you see
|-
|'''Pulse / rev = only the pulses counted''' (Missing teeth not added)||Pulse / rev 8, Missing teeth 2||Speed '''wrong by +39 %'''
|-
|'''Missing teeth too small''' by one||Pulse / rev 9, Missing teeth 1||Speed '''too high by +16 %''', but the signal looks flat — easy to miss
|-
|'''Missing teeth = 0''' although there is a gap||Pulse / rev 8, Missing teeth 0||A '''big spike once per revolution''' (up to 62 %), mean speed +10 %
|-
|'''Missing teeth rounded up'''||Pulse / rev 11, Missing teeth 3||Correct here, but not always (a gap of 1.3 set to 2 is wrong). Always keep the whole number.
|}
With only a few pulses per revolution these mistakes are obvious. With many pulses (for example 58) the same mistakes give only a few percent and can go unnoticed: always do the check above.
The gap must be at least 1 pulse long and at most 3 pulses (see above). The detailed test results are given in [[#Annexe : Setting Pulse/rev and Missing teeth|the annex at the end of this page]].
