Steering angle sensor calibration & software options?

Steering Angle sensor - 32306793632
Is it possible to re-calibrate this sensor, or somehow avoid re-calibration during install?

Do any aftermarket devices/freeware setups do this? I have a usb-odb adapter.. not sure what software exists.. It'd be nice to recode my top and windows to be one touch, if possible.

thanks for the update. You can reset it using inpa. Just make sure on install that the steering wheel itself lines up with the marks on the spline with the mark on the wheel. I have seen people that had steering wheels swapped being off and then wondered why the wheel was always off.
