The Vernier Sensor Block for MINDSTORMS EV3 software does not have a Zero function. You can easily create a correction in your program to effectively zero the sensor reading: <\/p>\n
1. Determine what the sensor is reading when it should read zero. This is the offset value.
\n2. Insert a Math block to correct the value by that amount.
\n3. Select the subtraction setting on the Math block and enter the offset value into the b box in the Math block.
\n4. Wire the Numerical Value of the sensor reading into the a box. <\/p>\n
