Hand Home Position Adjustment
Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands of the watch to be off.

Using the Digital Compass
In the Digital Compass Mode, a built-in bearing sensor detects magnetic north at regular intervals and
indicates one of 16 directions on the upper display.

Digital Compass Readings
• When you press

to start a digital compass operation,
COMP
will initially appear on the upper
display. About two seconds after you start a digital compass operation, an indicator will appear in the
upper display to indicate what direction the 12 o’clock position of the watch is pointed. The second
hand will point to magnetic north.
• After the fi
each second for up to 20 seconds. After that, the digital compass operation will stop automatically.
• The direction indicator and angle value will show
- - -
to indicate that the digital compass operation is
complete.
• The auto light switch is disabled during the 20 seconds that digital compass readings are being taken.
• The following table shows the meanings of each of the direction abbreviations that appear on the upper
display.

• The margin of error for the angle value and the direction indicator is ±15 degrees while the watch is
horizontal (in relation to the horizon). If the indicated direction is northwest (

) and 315 degrees, for
example, the actual direction can be anywhere from 300 to 330 degrees.

• Note that performing a digital compass operation while the watch is not horizontal (in relation to the
horizon) can result in large error.
• You can calibrate the bearing sensor if you suspect the direction reading is incorrect.
• Any ongoing digital compass operation is paused temporarily while the watch is performing an alert
operation (daily alarm, Hourly Time Signal, countdown timer alarm) or while illumination is turned on (by
pressing
B
). The digital compass operation resumes for its remaining duration after the operation that
caused it to pause is fi
• See “Digital Compass Precautions” (page E-33) for important information about taking direction readings.
Calibrating the Bearing Sensor
You should calibrate the bearing sensor whenever you feel that the direction readings being produced by
the watch are off. You can use any one of two different bearing sensor calibration methods: bidirectional
calibration or magnetic declination correction.
•
Bidirectional Calibration
Bidirectional calibration calibrates the bearing sensor in relation to magnetic north. Use bidirectional
calibration when you want to take readings within an area exposed to magnetic force. This type of
calibration should be used if the watch becomes magnetized for any reason.
Important!
The more correctly you perform bidirectional calibration, the better the accuracy of the readings
produced by the bearing sensor. You should perform bidirectional calibration whenever you change
environments where you use the bearing sensor, and whenever you feel that the bearing sensor is
producing incorrect readings.
E-23
•
Magnetic Declination Correction
With magnetic declination correction, you input a magnetic declination angle (difference between
magnetic north and true north), which allows the watch to indicate true north. You can perform this
procedure when the magnetic declination angle is indicated on the map you are using. Note that you can
input the declination angle in whole degree units only, so you may need to round off the value specifi
on the map. If your map indicates the declination angle as 7.4°, you should input 7°. In the case of 7.6°
input 8°, for 7.5° you can input 7° or 8°.
Precautions about bidirectional calibration
• You can use any two opposing directions for bidirectional calibration. You must, however, make sure
that they are 180 degrees opposite each other. Remember that if you perform the procedure
incorrectly, you will get wrong bearing sensor readings.
• Do not move the watch while calibration of either direction is in progress.
• You should perform bidirectional calibration in an environment that is the same as that where you plan
to be taking direction readings. If you plan to take direction readings in an open fi
