RSM Calibration Procedure
The RSM calibration routine is accomplished using the Installation Menu “RSM
CALIBRATION” menu page. See Section 10.4.5 (Installation Menu Access) for instructions
on entering the INSTALLATION MENU.
CAUTION: The “PANEL TILT PITCH ADJ” and “ROLL ATT TRIM” must be set correctly on the
Installation Menu page prior to calibrating the RSM.
Figure 10-11: RSM Calibration Page
On the “RSM CALIBRATION” menu page the current calibrated heading (to the nearest 0.1
degrees) will be continuously displayed adjacent to the “CAL HDG:” menu field.
NOTE: Verify CAL HDG is within 25 degrees of a calibrated compass source prior to starting the RSM
Calibration. This is a rough check of the hard and soft iron effects (magnetic interference) in
the vicinity of the RSM. Should the CAL HDG be greater than 25 degrees then the RSM
location should be re-surveyed per Section 6.9.1.
With aircraft stationary at (POSITION 1) of Figure 10-10 press the “START CALIBRATION”
line select key. The annunciation shown in Figure 10-12 will be displayed with a
countdown timer that begins with 15 secs and counts down to 0 secs.
CAUTION: Do not press ACCEPT Calibration without moving the aircraft in the procedure below as
corruption to the configuration module could occur.
