SkyView compass calibration

[normfox]

My SkyView Classic comes up every time with a caution to perform a compass calibration.

When I get to the calibration screen it is slightly different from the manual.

GPS is green but the message is that data is already loaded for the 4 cardinal points.

I can hold the appropriate buttons for as long as I like but never get a success/saved confirmation.

The default option is always greyed out. I can see no way of proceeding.

 

Has this happened to anyone else?

Am I missing something?

Has anyone got a suggestion?

Slightly off topic !,

 But

My Pajero has to do a 360 turn to calibrate the compass.

Sometime 2 or 3 turns. Then all good, untill that battery, disconnection means do it again.

Wrong number

Ta. Certainly done the 360s but not successful.

I am suspecting a software issue since the screen does not have the same options as the manual refers to.

However I think all other aspects of the system appear to be OK.

I believe I have the latest software version.

So frustrating when for my purposes the compass actually seems to be pretty much correct - I think I just want to see the 'Caution' disappear!

Gotta love them electricky gizmos. Always better than a magnetised needle on a string.

Maybe try posting on the Dynon forum?
