ADJUSTING THE COMPASS
To align the Space Navigator compass precisely, you need
to use the North Star, also called Polaris. If you already
know how to find Polaris, jump down to the section entitled
“COMPASS SCALE ADJUSTMENT USING THE NORTH
STAR.” If you do not know how to find the North Star/Polaris,
Space Navigator will roughly adjust its compass so that
you can use Space Navigator to find the North Star. (If your
package contains the booklet “Navigating the Universe,”
you can also go to page 42 to see how to find the North Star
visually. Everyone should learn how to do this in order to
find directions at night.) The QUICK START COMPASS
ALIGNMENT section below will help you to adjust and align
the Compass using Magnetic North.
NOTE: When adjusting the compass using Magnetic North,
the letter A must always be placed at the top of the compass
dial.
