Compass calibration

If the System was exposed to a strong magnetic field or was not in use for a long time, the compass accuracy may diminish.

To return the compass into working condition:

Select CALc from CAL menu

Keeping the unit horizontally, perform one full rotation around vertical axis within half a minute and then one full rotation around vertical axis with device upside down during half a minute.

If one rotation does not restore calibration – perform two rotations.

The normal compass functioning will be restored.

Setting interface format

In this mode data communication standard is set. The unit can output measurement data via RS-232 port in either PC format (description of the proprietary format can be obtained from Newcon upon a request) or in the format accepted by PLGF/DALGR.

To select required data format:

Select PLGr or PC from SEt menu

Pressing Action button will activate PC or PLGR format, the display name of format that can be activated will be shown.
