camshaft position sensor question

Folks -

I'm about 2/3 of the way into the disassembly for this job. There's a sh$%t ton of stuff that has to be removed to get to the covers. I'm doing this as part of a mid-life overhaul...wrapped the turbos and cats, replacing all of the vacuum lines, replacing coolant hoses, adding catch cans to the CCV systems, etc.

My question is in regards to the camshaft position sensor. I don't understand TIS instructions. Can someone explain in more detail what this means? I haven't removed the cover yet (or the sensor) as I'd like to understand this step before proceeding. Thanks.

"Installation note:
It is important to join screw (1) for exact positioning of the camshaft sensors.


Fit cylinder head cover.
Position screw (1).
Release screw (1) by 90°"
