Edge 530 calorie count using powermeter, seems way out compared to Zwift and Edge 510

Did a ride today on zwift and recorded the same ride with the same data, from the same power source (Tacx Neo) using 3 different recorders:

1) Zwift

2) Edge 530

3) Edge 510

All 3 rides had identical measures of avg power and "work" (power x time). but here's the weird thing:

The "work" in KJ was closest to Zwift's calculation of "calories"

Edge 510 calorie count was about 10% higher than zwift

Edge 530 calorie count was 35% higher than zwift.

Is there something I can do to make the E530 calculate calories a bit more accuratley?
