to perform a normal read cycle on the composite axis
signal. This procedure is executed for all ranges. When
the processor receives all the zero-field values, it stores
them in a special register; these values are subtracted
from all subsequent measurements. Therefore, a probe
which is zeroed while it is not in a zero field environment
will give erroneous readings.
