Installing the battery
The unit uses a 3-volt CR123A lithium-type
battery, installed according to the diagram on
the inside of the battery compartment. Push the
battery straight down into the compartment,
not at an angle. Once the battery is inserted,
the unit will cycle through a quality test of
two different displays. The entire test lasts
approximately 10 seconds, then displays heading
information.
Note: Heading information will
be inaccurate until you calibrate.
After installation, you must calibrate the
unit. As a reminder, the “
DISTORTION
”
icon will display in the upper left corner
until the unit is calibrated.
Every time the battery is removed the PNI
V2000 must be calibrated and all previous
feature settings must be re-programmed.
If any of the two quality test screens
display for more than 30 seconds, remove
the battery, wait for approximately one
minute, and then reinsert the battery.
The PNI V2000 has a programmable
auto shut-off feature. When no mag-
netic field change has been detected for
approximately 10 minutes, the compass
automatically switches off.
