The IMAQ Vision 6.0 Concepts Manual has good detailed information on a variety of topics including calibration. Chapter 3 has 18 pages of information on calibration and setting up your imaging system.
If you installed the Vision 6 help, it should be under your Start>>Programs>>National Instruments>>Vision>>Documentation, or you could go to ni.com/support and look in product manuals pull down to find the link:

This is fior the Vision 5, but it looks like the concepts are the same.
Hope this helps,
