Operations Manual
Adjusting the Compass Master Heading Correction
This process allows you to align the digital compass with the vessel center line. This
is normally a one-time process that corrects the entire 360° equally.
To align the compass determine the amount of offset and enter it into the Compass
Heading Correction screen.
To do this, Open the Nobeltec software and click on the Boat Properties tool which
can be found on the toolbar (shown below). You can also right click on the boat and
choose the option titled: Properties.
Once the Boat properties window is open, the General tab shows how the compass
bearings are displayed (True or Magnetic) along with the magnetic variation at
the boat location. Click on the Deviation button to open the Compass Heading
Corrections dialog.
Enter the compass master correction
value in the field provided.
Because the master value affects all
degrees equally, make sure that you
enter it before you proceed to creating a
compass deviation table.
Click the OK button to close out of this dialog.
