Electronic Compass
The Electronic Compass page shows directions of movement including
orientation, pitch angle, roll angle, and azimuth angle.
The Accuracy reading is for your reference. When the application
determines that calibration is needed, it will pop up the “Calibration”
graphics asking you to calibrate the compass. Hold the device and swing it in
the way as shown on the screen. Do this several times until the popup
graphics disappear.
NOTE: Follow these guidelines when using the compass.
Keep the device away from objects that generate magnetic fields, such
as cars, large belt buckles, computers, cell phones, etc.
If you must use the compass inside a car, the device should be at least 20
cm (7.87 inches) away from metal objects such as car doors, dashboard,
air vents, etc.
