The term E6 makes no sense to me, it's certainly not the notation GuitarPro uses.
With some of the chromatic tuners, there's a little bit in the display that says "6E" when you're playing the 6th string and it's close to tune, or "2B" for the second string etc.
How old is the battery in that tuner?
Best,

As everybody else has missed it, the 6E string is not supposed to be at a higher pitch than the 4D string -
Modified Nashville tuning ... :wink:
Alan is correct - something is amiss, likely with the tuner. It should not be registering 5A (open 5th string), then 7b (open baritone 7th string) as you tighten up. If 5A is in fact your starting point, you have already tuned it too high.

Hopefully it's not a baritone guitar, but I know you know the difference :)
One thing: sometimes electronic tuners, depending on the guitar and/or pickups, track the fifth or fourth instead of the fundamental. My little Korg CA30 does that. Really annoying. It'll say "Yes, your B is in tune!" when in fact I'm plucking my open E string.
