Precautions about bidirectional calibration
・
Do not move the product and keep it placing on a flat surface while calibration is in progress.
・
If bidirectional calibration is performed to the every digital compass measurement, a more
accurate measuring result can be obtained.
・
Please perform bidirectional calibration whenever environment to use changes.
・
At the place with strong magnetism such as near home electronics, OA equipment and
cellular phone, it may be unable to calibrate correctly.
・
Please make sure to select two opposing directions that are 180 degrees opposite each
other.
