The first step in setting up your compass(es) is to verify that it is (or they are) properly
wired to the SPU.
After the verification, depending on which compass or compasses you are using, you
must do the calibration or configuration one at a time.
All calibration or configuration should be done while tied up to the dock, in case any re-
wiring needs to be done, or if it turns out that some elements of the SP38 system need to
be moved.
NOTE: during these steps, the autopilot may issue an INVALID HEADING alarm. These
alarms can be ignored, by hitting the
ENTER button.
Once a compass is “found” during this procedure, the alarms should cease.
