Compass Calibration
This function will activate the automatic compass calibration
procedure (for Simrad compasses connected through RobNet
and through J50 Junction Unit Heading Sensor (HS) terminal,
and compasses connected through CI300X).
Note ! If an optional magnetic compass is installed and connected to
J50 or CI300X, or if a gyrocompass, or other manufacturer’s
fluxgate is connected to a CI300X, it is still required to perform
the automatic compass calibration in order to calibrate the
heading/input signal. Not applicable for stepper and geared
synchro signals.

Before you begin the compass calibration procedure, make sure

the boat.
The calibration should be done in calm sea conditions with
minimal wind to obtain good results.
Press the (STBD) button to select the Calibration function.

calibration may fail and the display will show “Failed”.
In that case, move the compass to a more suitable location and
re-calibrate.
