Declination represents the
deviation between magnetic
north and grid north.
Declination
- varies from location to location
- varies from time to time
- is specified on most land and
sea maps
To refer the azimuth angle to
grid north: enter the local
declination value into the Laser
Locator.
To refer the azimuth angle to
magnetic north: enter a zero
declination value into the Laser
Locator.
Click the azimuth key three
times in rapid succession.
The current declination value is
displayed for 10 seconds.
The Laser Locator displays
"Old dECL" before switching
itself off (the declination value is
unchanged).
Declination is displayed in the
currently selected angular units
(see page 26).
The stored declination
value
- is reset to 0 when the
measurement units are
changed (see page 26);
- is retained when the battery is
exhausted or replaced;
- is factory-set to 0.
