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.
 Avoid playing music with the internal speaker or connecting
the AC adapter. This will cause the magnetic interference
to the compass.
