Configuration parameters and settings for kSetConfig:

kDeclination (Config. ID 1d)

This sets the declination angle to determine True North heading. Positive

declination is easterly declination and negative is westerly declination. This is not

applied unless kTrueNorth is set to TRUE.

kTrueNorth (Config. ID 2

d

)

Flag to set compass heading output to true north heading by adding the

declination angle to the magnetic north heading.

kBigEndian (Config. ID 6

d

)

Sets the Endianness of packets. TRUE is Big Endian. FALSE is Little Endian.

kMountingRef (Config. ID 10

d

)

This sets the reference orientation for the TRAX. Please refer to Figure 4-2 for

additional information.

kUserCalNumPoints (Config. ID 12

d

)

The user must select the number of points to take during a calibration. Table 7-4
provides the “Minimum Recommended” number of sample points, as well as the
full “Allowable Range”. The “Minimum Recommended” number of samples
normally is sufficient to meet the TRAX’s heading accuracy specification, while
less than this may make it difficult to meet specification. See Section 5 for

additional information.
