Belt Tension Numbers not updating

So I noticed that my x-axis belt was a little loose, so I ended up taking the extruder apart and tightening it. But now after the self test and xyz calibration the number hasn't moved, even though the belt is visibly tighter. Is there a specific process to make the numbers update? Thanks!

Well - don't consider them belt tension numbers. They are motor resistance numbers, only indirectly related to tension.

Others can give you better insights on why the numbers are not updating. I thought self-test forced an update.

So the issue with the numbers not updating was that I wasn't on the latest firmware. Upgraded it and now the numbers update
