Zeroing ForceDecks

ForceDecks (and force plates in general) should always be zeroed before recording a test. This is the process of calibrating the force plates so they will measure the movement accurately for the creation of quality data. 

To zero your ForceDecks:

1. Ensure that the force plates are level and turned on
2. Make sure nothing is touching the plates. The client should not be on the force plates yet.
3. Click Zero Platforms
   
   
4. An alert will appear for 2-3 seconds
5. A new Test Recordings tab will appear on the top of your screen
6. When you're ready, instruct your client to assume the starting position. 

Note: Try to minimise "noise" around the plates during this period i.e. jumping, dropping weights, vibrations near the plates etc.
