Hi all! I succesfully retrofitted the Areaview module and displaying images... but needs to be calibrated...

I just want to know if it's possible to calibrate the AreaView cameras (360º) of the Audi B9 A4/S4 cars (PreFacelift) with VCDS and VAS 721 001, then, how?
The same as you replace the module, repair/replace cameras, etc.. is needed a calibration

I feel I'll get billed by an Audi dealer many much than worths, I have the latest cable and beta software version (or at least some days ago), and I found some basic settings / adaptation channels but no info.. how to proceed / fill the fields.
I have official documentation about how to place the VAS 721 001 patterns on the floor, but nothing on the diagnostics side, just "Further instructions are given by ⇒ Vehicle diagnostic tester during calibration procedure."

I have been unable to find any instructions to do this with VCDS, just other procedures for older rear backup cameras
Are there any instructions in the forum I missed, or just saved somewhere ready to share here? :)

I would like to know about this before trying to acquire some floor patterns and at the end lose that money and specially time until I receive these calibration templates, and at the end having to go to the dealer..
(also the car is still under warranty and an oil/inspection service coming soon, would not be nice showing DTCs.. as it orininally had backup camera module even is possible they don't notice anything for complaining and charge if the car has no errors)

Thanks in advance!
