Compass instrument
The Compass instrument is set up using two stages of calibration.
Thefirststageenablesyouto:
• Choose which data you see on the digital display, when operating in
Locked mode. Either the locked (or ‘Fixed’) bearing, or the current
bearing.
• Choose whether you display true or magnetic bearing data.
The second stage enables you to:
• Set the instrument pointer response
• Set the digital display response.
• Select a Boat Show mode. It is strongly recommended that you do
NOT switch on this mode. Always ensure it is set to off(bs0).This is
the factory set value.
• Apply the factory default values.
At each Compass instrument, carry out the first stage of calibration
(see Figure 4-2 ) followed by the second stage (see Figure 4-3 ).
