Bearing (bea): If you are navigating a route from the
Navigation menu, the third shortcut displays the bearing to the
next waypoint. If you have not activated a route and the GPS
is on, the shortcut displays the bearing to the start position
(where the GPS or an activity was switched on). If the GPS is
not on, the shortcut displays the latest acquired bearing.
NOTE: The magnetic sensor of the compass functions for 45
seconds at a time. After this period, the compass goes into
power-saving mode and the message ‘
START COMPASS’ is
displayed. To activate the compass again, press START/
DATA.
NOTE: The X10 Military model can be set to display mils instead of degrees by using
the Trek Manager SW.
3.4.2. Calibrating the compass
To ensure that the compass works properly, you need to calibrate it.
Calibrate the compass:
• If it does not seem to work well, for example, when it displays the wrong compass
heading or the heading changes too slowly.
• If your Suunto X10 has been exposed to strong electromagnetic fields, such as
electric lines, loudspeakers and magnets, which can affect the compass operation.
• Before you use it for the first time
• Before you leave for an extended outdoor activity.
To calibrate the compass:
1.In the Set menu, scroll to Calibrate and press ENTER.
The message ‘
ROTATE 360° HORIZONTAL’, a set of arrows
and a 30 second timer are displayed.
