Default Setting up Jet plate on Agfa Apogeex. What am I missing?

I'm having an issue with the proper parameters for setting up a Halm Jet plate on our Apogeex rip.
I've entered the proper size, image-area, type: web offset, and punch calibration. Does anyone know what and how the punch calibration is set on a plate that doesn't get punched? I've applied "none" and I get a punchcalibration error. Any help would be great.

For a 1030x800 plate I use the next punch calibration:
X axis: 399.85 mm
Y axis: 0

Note that it refers to the center of the plate. The usually would be 400 mm. But this corrects a small machine offset

I hope it will be usufull
