Adjusting electric brakes
What is the norm on adjustment of electric brakes. I periodically haul some machinery, and have to recalibrate the dash module. Should it be set to stop the TV? How do you set yours?

YES.
Just remember to put it back up when returning to the highway. I once forgot with the Prodigy 2 in my old truck, and in an emergency stop the trailer jacknifed. No harm done luckily but it was scarey.
Never could get the Prodigy 2 to stop jerking the trailer at low speeds without turning it way down. That's one of the things I really like about the built-in controller of the new trucks. They adjust trailer brake output according to your speed.
