’CAL’ (CALIBRATION) 
The compass needs to be calibrated at each battery change, also if the same battery is removed and used again 
or if the battery is somehow dispositioned. 
The calibration is made in the CAL menu. Press four (4) times to activate the function. Rotate the HCH instrument 
during 10-20 seconds at least 1-2 rotations, preferably on a plane surface free from magnetic objects. Another 
option is for the operator to rotate while holding and aiming with the instrument, and this method is 
recommended if wearing metal frame glasses. 
Finish the calibration after at least 1-2 spins by pressing the button. Important! Hold the HCH instrument plane 
both while measuring and calibrating! The built-in compass will show incorrect values if tilting the instrument. If 
the instrument is tilted during calibration, a message will be displayed urging you to correct the position, see 
section Compass, this manual. During calibration, the instrument shows how long time has passed since the 
calibration started (maximum timed 20 seconds)
. 
NOTE! Always test the compass function in at least four (4) 
directions after calibration!
