’ANG’ (ANGLE MEASURING)
Press the button three (3) times. The current angle is displayed. Use the two horizontal lines in the display as aim.
Complete the measuring with a short button press.
’SET’ (SETTINGS)
The deviation varies from location to location. To compensate for the deviation, you need to consider the
location you are presently at when adjusting the compass. Note that the deviation can vary from time to time as
well. Choose SEt to set the current local deviation between true north and magnetic north. The HCH will
automatically correct the measured compass angle with the set deviation. Activate the SEt menu by pressing
three (3) times on the button. Register the deviation by pressing and keeping the button depressed and tilting the
instrument up and down. Release the button when the desired value has been registered. If the angle is not big
enough to obtain the desired value, release the button and start over. By doing this, you can obtain optional
deviation between -45º and 45º. A short press on the button finishes the registration. The input value will remain
in the HCH memory also if removing the battery.
Without compensation for ex. in Stockholm the compass will show 0 degrees at magnetic north. Since the
deviation is 2º degrees to geographic north, the setting should be 2º in the SEt menu. The compass will now show
correct result - 2º.
