T6320 Features

CAUTION: The T6320 contains sophisticated electronic measuring components (compass, barometer, and altimeter). These components require calibration and care to function properly. Improper calibration or care will result in inaccurate readings.

Compass

The compass feature is an accurate and instantaneous directional aid. When held horizontally, the direction the radio antenna is pointing is displayed. The compass displays eight cardinal points (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, and NW) and the corresponding numeric compass degrees from north; for example 17o, 26o. Calibrate the compass for first use, after changing batteries, during and after use in a motor vehicle, or after major changes in global position.

Note: The effect of electric accessories and high current devices present in motor vehicles can cause incorrect compass readings. The compass should be recalibrated during and after use in a motor vehicle.

Calibrating the Compass

To calibrate the compass, select the COMPASS mode and the CALIBRAT menu. Keep the radio level during the calibration procedure. After turning calibration on, hold the radio horizontally

and rotate it at least a full circle (360o). Press yor turn calibration off to set the calibration.

Note: Each time you select CALIB ON, you must perform the calibration procedure. Selecting CALIB ON clears previous calibration settings.
