Factors influencing azimuth accuracy
The device has a digital compass that works similar to a magnetic compass. Metal
objects, magnetic fields and electronic devices (e.g. radio) can cause error in directional
readings. Nonmagnetic metals and alloys do not affect the compass readings.
Countermeasures
• A compass calibration must be performed after every battery change
(see page 30)
• Observe the minimum safe distances shown above when making azimuth
measurements or compass calibration.
