Compass Calibration
Anritsu recommends calibrating the MA2700A electronic compass
before the first use and afterwards if the Anritsu instrument connected
to the MA2700A is displaying unexpected signal direction readings. Use
your Anritsu instrument measurement guide to open the External
Compass Calibration menu and follow the onscreen instructions as
shown in (
).
Figure 2-3.
Compass Calibration
Note
Electrical or magnetic fields can interfere with compass
readings. When calibrating the compass be careful to stay
well clear of electronics, high voltage power lines, magnetic
devices, and masses of steel or iron.
These same precautions should be taken when mapping
interference.
