The Auto Zero procedure normally takes 1 - 2 minutes during which time the DP
Zero counts and the Sensor reading changes approximately every 3 to 6 seconds.

The nominal value for a fully balanced sensor is 120 Counts. If the XFM’s digital
signal processor was able to adjust the Sensor reading within 120 ± 10 counts,
then Auto Zero is considered successful. The status LED will return to a constant
GREEN light and the screen below will appear:

If the device was unable to adjust the Sensor reading to within 120 ± 10 counts,
then Auto Zero is considered as unsuccessful. The constant RED light will appear
on the status LED. The user will be prompted with the “AutoZero ERROR!” screen.
