display view saved with the reading.
4) Scroll the cursor to the next blank cell for the probe zero bolt. This will
always be a cell located in columns B – ZZ . As soon as the user has
scrolled to blank cell, the MAX II will switch into elongation mode and use all
the data from the probe zero bolt initially stored.
5) Press the MEAS key once to activate Hot Menu items. Press the MEAS
key multiple times to move down and the ESC key multiple times to move up
until the TEMP cell is highlighted. Alternatively, press the LEFT and
RIGHT arrow keys multiple times using the left button wheel.
6) Press the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys multiple times using the right
button wheel to scroll the TEMP value.
7) Continue to scroll the temp value until the elongation reads 0.0000. When
the value is at 0.0000 the MAX II is officially zeroed and ready to store or
document the zero data prior to making measurements.
8) Press the ENTER key to store the 0.0000 elongation value. Why bother
storing the 0.0000 elongation value? Because the adjustment to
temperature is also stored with the measurement. This documents the
changes for reporting requirements.
