Compass
Your microTALK features an 8-point digital
compass. (
NOTE:
Because the surrounding
terrain can affect compass accuracy, it is
recommended that you calibrate the compass
before each use.) It is important to keep the
radio parallel to the ground at all times while
calibrating and using the compass.
Calibrating the Compass
1.
Press and hold the COMPASS button for
2 seconds. “Compass” and “CALIbr” will
appear in the LCD.
2.
Hold the radio in front of you, parallel to
the ground, and turn around in a circle at
least two times, then press Compass button
again. Or you may also place the radio on
the palm of one of
your hands, parallel
to the ground, and
turn it in a circle at
least two times with your other hand, then
press the COMPASS button again.
3.
If compass calibration was successful,
“SUCCES” will appear in the LCD for
1-second, then the unit will automatically
return to compass mode.
4.
If “FAIL” appears in the LCD, repeat steps
1 and 2. (If you receive repeated “FAIL”
messages, change locations and repeat
steps 1 and 2.)
Using the Compass
After proper calibration
(see steps 1-4), press
and release the
COMPASS button.
“Compass” and the
current direction will be
displayed. The radio
must always be parallel to the ground to give
accurate directional readings. The direction of
the antenna is the direction displayed in the LCD.
To exit Compass mode, press and release the
COMPASS button again.
