000.0 to 359.9 

Declination angle. Standard convention requires that westward declination 
angles are subtracted from magnetic heading in order to derive true 
heading. Conversely eastward declination angles are added to magnetic 
heading. However, since the declination angle on the FT742-SM is 
provided in the form 0 to 359.9°, the user must write westerly declination 
in the form (360 

– westerly declination). For example, a westerly 

declination of 10° would be sent to the FT742-SM as 350°. 

 
Examples  

 
Example 1  
Set the declination angle to 5° East and read the compass heading and declination parameters:
