Abstract
A method for orienting a device axis of equipment in a defined state by a leveling unit includes storing, in a control device, a characteristic curve of zero positions of a tilt sensor of the leveling unit according to an operating temperature of the equipment, measuring the operating temperature, determining the zero position of the tilt sensor associated with the measured temperature with the aid of the characteristic curve, and using the leveling unit to orient the device axis in the defined state which has been established by the zero position determined with the aid of the characteristic curve.
