Any GMU magnetometer removal or replacement requires repeating the Magnetometer Calibration
(Section 34.4.6.3
).
A repeat of the Pitch/Roll Offset Compensation (Section 34.4.5.2
) requires a repeat of the Magnetometer
Calibration (Section 34.4.6.3
).
The addition, removal, or modification of components that are ferrous, or otherwise magnetic, within 10.0
feet of the GMU magnetometer location after the Magnetometer Interference Test (Section 34.4.6.2
) or
Magnetometer Calibration (Section 34.4.6.3
) were completed requires a repeat of both procedures.
Furthermore, electrical changes to the installation that affect components within 10.0 feet of the GMU
magnetometer after the Magnetometer Calibration (Section 34.4.6.3
) and Magnetometer Interference Test
(Section 34.4.6.2
) were completed will require a repeat of the magnetometer interference test. If new
magnetic interference is detected, it must be resolved, then the Magnetometer Calibration
(Section 34.4.6.3
) must be repeated. Wiring or grounding changes associated with a device located in the
vicinity of the GMU magnetometer is a good example of such a change.
