Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017093087A1] The invention relates to a method for orienting a device axis of equipment in a defined state by means of a levelling unit, the method having the steps: storing, in a control device, a characteristic curve of zero positions (υ) of a tilt sensor of the levelling unit according to an operating temperature (T) of the equipment; measuring the operating temperature (T); determining the zero position (υ) of the tilt sensor associated with the measured temperature (T) with the aid of the characteristic curve; and using the levelling unit to orient the device axis in the defined state which has been established by the zero position (υ) determined with the aid of the characteristic curve.
