Sea Trial Setup: Steps 10-15 will need to be performed on open water, free of obstacles.
10. Calibrate your compass. The autopilot compass is made with a uxgate. Like all compass
installations, uxgate installations are susceptible to local magnetic disturbances that will cause
erroneous heading outputs. The autopilot computer can detect and correct deviations caused by
magnets and iron materials around the uxgate- if the earths’ magnetic eld near the compass isn’t
too distorted. Even though the compass corrects iron induced errors, don’t expect the correction
to solve all ills associated with iron near the compass, placement of the compass in an iron free
area is critical. You should only calibrate the compass on calm water. Stay away from large steel
structures. Calibration will not work right if you try to do calibration with your boat on the trailer
because the trailer is made with iron. Find some smooth water where you can drive in circles
without running into anything.
