Default Tick Performance clutch master question

I recently got my LS7 clutch installed with the Tick Performance master cylinder. Everything seems to be working fine, but I was wondering how am I supposed to adjust this master? Does it just adjust the feel of the pedal or fluid too? I haven't had the chance to shift at high rpms just yet.

when you adjust the MC you are adjusting how much fluid it flows.

Ok, I was adjusting my master today and I noticed that the clutch pedal touches a button/switch on both sides (engaged/not engaged). What are those switches/buttons? I did notice that after the clutch swap that my cruise control doesn't work and I'm throwing a clutch code.

The black switch that engages with the pedal depressed is the clutch safety switch that allows the car to start. The white switch that's engaged when the pedal is released is for the cruise control. You need to adjust the white switch until it touches the clutch pedal. The sensor body is threaded to allow adjustment.

AHHH... I see! Thing seems like a pain to adjust.
