Hello;

That is not related to VI Logger neither with NI hardware.
Every strain gauge has specific physical characteristcs, that can provide different voltage values at idle state.
The only way to zero those out is by adding Software offsets to each transducer. That needs to be done on a programming environment, such Labview, for instance.
VI Logger doesn't support that feature.
