Abstract
A method, computer readable medium, and apparatus for controlling a moveable element includes generating and providing with a control device one or more driving signals to one or more positioning actuators to move the moveable element towards a target position based on a target travel distance and a calibration value. The control device determines when a post-movement position of the moveable element is outside of a tolerance range of the target position. The control device recalibrates the calibration value when the post-movement position is determined to be outside of the tolerance range. The control device repeats the generating, the determining, and the recalibrating as open loop steps until the post-movement position is within the tolerance range or until a limit, if any, on attempts is reached.
