Frequently Asked Question
How do I zero the sensor.
Last Updated about a month ago
Zero adjustment allows users to compensate for mechanical offsets of a horizontally mounted 2-axis device or set a customised 0° position of a vertically mounted 1-axis sensor. The measured inclination value at the 0° position will be stored in the device as a permanent offset, which is used to calculate the actual inclination output of the device.
Method
1. Bring the object with the mounted sensor to its zero position.
2. Apply power to the sensor and within 1 minute perform the zero adjustment as follow.
3. Connect zero adjustment input to ground for at least 0,5 seconds.
4. Disconnect the connection,.Normally this input should be left unconnected.
1-axis ±180° sensors can be zero adjusted over the full range, the position of the male connector is at customer discretion.
2-axis ±30°/±90° sensors can only be zero adjusted in a horizontal position within an offset limit of ±5°.
