Using the Electronic Compass
Your 76CS Plus uses an electronic compass that func-
tions like a magnetic compass when you are station-
ary. However, when you are moving, it uses data from
the GPS receiver to maintain your heading. When you
stop, it again operates like a magnetic compass.
You must calibrate the compass the first time you use
the unit and after you install new batteries. Refer to
page 7 for information about calibration.
