The firmware version will appear on the Hbx during booting, and otherwise its under the statistics menu.
To read the lash percentages via the hbx, go to the setup > telescope > backlash section.
Basically, if you have a drive train value of 100 arcsecs, it means that when the scope changes direction, there is 100arcsec of slop in the geartrain that must be taken up before it starts moving again.
The percentage values tells the scope how much of this to apply at high speed, so what people normally do is start at say 90 and just try the buttons.
If it "jumps" in the EP due to a bit of overrrun when you press the buttons, just drop it to 80 and try again.
