VFX1 HEADGEAR Calibration
The VFX1 HEADGEAR is calibrated at the factory, but may require in-field
calibration due to environmental factors. The VFX1 HEADGEAR uses the local
magnetic field in the vicinity of the helmet as a calibration reference. Items that
can cause subtle changes in the uniformity of this field, such as iron objects and
electrical conduits, can affect the VFX1 HEADGEAR calibration. This leads to
sporadic tracking, such as fast or slow tracking regions, dead spots, etc. These
effects may be corrected by performing an in-field calibration. From the
SETVFX1 menu, select the CALIBRATE menu option and proceed as directed.
NOTE: The utility provides for setting either new calibration values or returning
the settings to their original factory values.
