Question about VVT

I posted this in the 128i motor section, but not much traffic there.

My question......I just replaced my valve cover gasket after installing my MILVS. I took my valvetronics motor out with no issues using the Allen wrench to turn it CW until I felt tension then backed off slightly.

After putting everything back together, it lined up perfectly.

Do I have to do anything for calibration of the valvetronics motor? I've read about just putting the key in, ignition button on without starting the car....and let it sit for 30-60 seconds. Then maybe do it again for good measure. I've got this far....just want to do it right.

Garage List
Just turn ignition on for 30 seconds without starting, then fire it up. I didn't pay much attention to it and had no issues.
