Declination Setting

Declination adjusts the compass for the local magnetic fields. In some areas, magnetic declination can be considerable, so it is a good idea to check for declination on your map or on the Internet. To adjust the compass declination angle, go to Compass Mode and hold down ADJ button for 3 seconds, and the Compass Homing Calibration Mode is displayed. Press MODE button until you get into Declination Setting Mode displayed as ‘DEC’. Press COMP/+ or BARO/- button for desired value then press ADJ button to save settings and exit the mode. Declination is sometimes measured as degrees positive and negative. Degrees East are considered positive and Degrees West are considered negative. For example, to change

from 3 degrees East (positive) declination to 3 degrees West (negative) press the BARO/- button until 3W appears.

Self Homing Mode

To adjust homing bearing, press and hold ADJ button for three seconds. Press COMP/+ button or BARO/- button to adjust to desired bearing setting. Pressing COMP/+ or BARO/- will increase or decrease bearing by increments of ten. A single push of COMP/+ or BARO/- moves bearing by 1 degree. When done, press ADJ to return to Homing Mode. To return to Compass Mode press COMP/+ button.

To operate the compass in Homing Mode go into the Compass Mode first, then press the COMP/+ button again to get into Homing Mode.
