Azimuth and inclination measurements
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
•Compensate the compass after every battery change (see page 33)
•Observe the minimum safe distances shown above when making azimuth
measurements or compass compensation.
