Sensor Calibration

Calibrate the on-board sensors before a deployment. Each sensor shows when it was last calibrated, with a Calibrate sensor button.

• Heading Direction, the magnetometer (compass).
• Turbidity.

Pressing Calibrate sensor for the heading opens the magnetometer calibration:

warning

Calibrate with all rigging and metal hardware in their final positions, because metal near the device affects the compass. During calibration, tilt the device smoothly through all orientations. It takes about 30 to 60 seconds.

When everything is set, build a Schedule and press Save and start logging. The status LED turns green and the device enters logging mode within about 30 seconds.
