+ENRK Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I recently picked up an Oregon 200 and it's compass seems sluggish. I can't seem to find the calibrate feature on the unit. Does anyone know how to calibrate this unit, or is it not an option? Thanks Quote Link to comment
+coggins Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 It doesn't have an electronic compass so there isn't anything to calibrate. You need to be in motion for it to work. Quote Link to comment
+ENRK Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 That explains it. Thanks for the help! Quote Link to comment
+Walts Hunting Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 That is why it is sluggish. If you stand in one spot and turn around it won't do anything. Depending on conditions you may have to walk as much as 50 feet in a straight line to get the compass to point accurately. Quote Link to comment
