The diamagnetic loop (DL) is installed for the plasma diamagnetic measurement at the first plasma in the Korea superconducting tokamak advanced research (KSTAR) machine. Experimental results from the position measurement of the DL inside the KSTAR vacuum vessel and the vacuum flux measurement by using the DL for the evaluation of the geometrical data and the balance coefficient of the DL for the compensation of the vacuum flux in the diamagnetic measurement are described. In addition, a preliminary work of an instrument for a hardware compensation of the vacuum flux is presented.
