Checkline KXE - Manual (Page 6)

– 6 –
Measuring with the display unit in the right hand (default position):
1. Tension meter switched off as described in
Chapter 3.2
2. Press and hold the DAMP and POWER
keys until the display shows the readings
in the default position.
NOTE: The selected display orientation
remains stored in the KXE memory even after
the instrument is switched off.
3.4 Zero adjustment of the measuring position.
Before starting measurement you need to carry out zero adjustment,
as described below, each time the tension meter is switched on. This
procedure is necessary to compensate for the weight of the measuring
roller in the measuring position. The zero adjustment for the new
measuring path only remains effective until the instrument is switched
off. Zero adjustment must be repeated whenever the material path is
changed or the tension meter does not display “0.”
NOTE: The process material must not yet be inserted into the tension
meter!
To carry out a zero adjustment:
1. Holding the SENSOR at the HANDLE, place it in the desired measuring position.
Be careful to hold the instrument absolutely steady.
2. Press the POWER key.
The display momentarily shows
0000฀฀
and then switches to
฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀0
.
The KXE is now adjusted for the new material path and is ready to measure.
