Magnetic crank trigger?

Seems somewhat confusing to me. I understand setting the offset to correct for "requested" timing versus actual timing checked with a light, however the next step of moving the crank sensor baffles me, why would that need to be moved you just corrected any errors with the offset function! Joe BTW how many triggers does your cam sync have? OK after reading the last part of your last post I see what they're doing, the offset they're referring to is between the crank and cam sensors. Then you physically move the crank sensor for Ign. timing error sorta like changing the timing on an MSD crank trigger set up. I was confused as my system uses the offset to correct Ign. timing event errors. Based on what you're saying I can assume your crank trigger wheel does not employ a "missing" tooth design?
