TO CALIBRATE THE COMPASS
In order for the TEK Series 1.5 Handheld Device to accurately display your location, you must first calibrate the
electronic compass. You should always calibrate the compass after you arrive at a new starting location, after
periods of storage or after you install new batteries.
NOTE: Always calibrate the compass outdoors. Hold the compass level and away from objects that may generate
magnetic fields, such as cars, buildings, or overhead power lines.
1. From the main menu, select
COMPASS > CALIBRATE. The compass screen appears.
2. Rotate the
Handheld Device 2-3 times in all 3 dimensions as shown below. Rotate until the black indicators
are as close as possible to the centre of the green zone. If successful, your
Handheld Device will beep and
vibrate as well as display a message that says “CALIBRATION DATA HAS BEEN UPDATED SUCCESSFULLY”.
NOTE: If you are unable to get the compass to automatically update your calibration data, follow the
remaining steps.
3. Rotate until the black indicators are as close as possible to the green zone and press the
Menu Selection Pad
to continue.
4. At the prompt “DO YOU WANT TO SAVE THE NEW CALIBRATION DATA?” press the Arrow Keys to select
YES.
5. Press
BACK to return to the main menu.
