About the declination adjustment
Earth is a giant magnet with the S-pole at the North Pole and the N-pole at the South
Pole, and the magnetism the Earth has is called “geomagnetism”. There is a difference
between the angle of the north that a magnetic compass points to and the geographical
“true north” due to the effect of the “geomagnetism”. The difference between these
angles is called “declination”.
The compass in this unit will point to “true north” by automatically correcting the
“declination” with a built-in magnetic sensor.
•
The declination adjustment of this unit is performed by the latitude/longitude
information acquired by the positioning of the GPS. It is recommended to update the
current latitude/longitude by frequently performing the positioning since there may
be a significant difference in declination due to traveling depending on the location.
