Someone managed to over-rotate a 200 a few months ago (not sure who) so we got a bulletin telling us to set 10 degrees instead of 15. Once the TO/GA button is pushed you just roll the pitch wheel till you get 10. It is a royal P.I.T.A. and I still haven't figured out how many clicks to get it exactly right first time. I usually set it holding short, you can do it anytime but you have to remember to do the runway update.
