normfox Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 My SkyView Classic comes up every time with a caution to perform a compass calibration. When I get to the calibration screen it is slightly different from the manual. GPS is green but the message is that data is already loaded for the 4 cardinal points. I can hold the appropriate buttons for as long as I like but never get a success/saved confirmation. The default option is always greyed out. I can see no way of proceeding. Has this happened to anyone else? Am I missing something? Has anyone got a suggestion?
spacesailor Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) Slightly off topic !, But My Pajero has to do a 360 turn to calibrate the compass. Sometime 2 or 3 turns. Then all good, untill that battery, disconnection means do it again. spacesailor Edited March 8, 2021 by spacesailor Wrong number 1
normfox Posted March 8, 2021 Author Posted March 8, 2021 Ta. Certainly done the 360s but not successful. I am suspecting a software issue since the screen does not have the same options as the manual refers to. However I think all other aspects of the system appear to be OK. I believe I have the latest software version. So frustrating when for my purposes the compass actually seems to be pretty much correct - I think I just want to see the 'Caution' disappear!
