Continual monitoring and adaptation

LinearizationCompassLinearizationTo ensure optimum performance, after the initial linearization process is complete the unit continues to monitor and adapt the compass linearization to suit current conditions.

Automatic linearization If the conditions for linearization are less than ideal, the automatic linearization process temporarily pauses until conditions improve again. The following conditions can cause the linearization process to temporarily pause:

  • significant magnetic interference is present

  • vessel speed too slow or too fast

  • rate-of-turn too slow or too fast
