Clarification on 1044 compass calibration
Posted: Tue Dec 20, 2016 11:05 am
Hi,
We are looking to deploy quite a few 1044 in static locations with multiple per building. I've read the recommended procedure for calibrating the compass but have some questions:
1) Does the 1044 need to be situated at the location of use for the calibration to be accurate? Currently I have done the calibration elsewhere using the GPS of the location.
2) If multiple devices are to be used in a single building, can I calibrate 1 device and then take the produced compass settings and set all devices for that building (rather than individually calibrate each)? The GPS position of devices in a building only needs to be accurate to within a single building.
3) Is there a simple scripted way to do the calibration process for a lot of devices if the GPS location is known for each device?
