Radio frequency presets dials
In a radio frequency lesson, I have been asked to have each position start with a specific number. There are two dials: a larger dial to move between the digits and a smaller dial for changing the digit from 0 to 9. When I advance the larger dial to the next number, the location that the smaller dial is on sets the number for the new position. If the first digit is changed to six with the small dial, when the large dial turns to the second digit, it becomes a six since the smaller dial is on a six.
How do I set up a two-dial scenario that resets the smaller dial to what is currently displayed in the text box?

Dials and textboxes have a variable attached. You can set up triggers that set the dial's variable (and with that its position) to whatever you need, including the value of numeric entry's variable.

If you are interested, here are some old examples of dial interactions: https://dev.keypointlearn.com/xcl74_SL3/DialsV1x/story_html5.html . The 2nd example (map/plane) shows the interaction of two dials; rotating the plane (custom dial) changes its variable, which in turn changes the map's (another custom dial) variable and with that its rotation.
