5.1.2 Referencing
Setting the zero-point:
A new AZ16I unit shows always the absolute value of the magnetic tape
and should be calibrated to the zero point at one time. The reference value default setting in reg-
ister

. To assign a zero point to an arbitrary position, move to the desired
zero-point and press the buttons
F + Set
together.

, to set a demanded ref-
erence measurement by pressing
