Compass
The eTrex 30x has a 3-axis, electronic 
compass. 
You can use a bearing pointer or a 
course pointer to navigate to your 
destination.
TIP: When the device is using the 
automotive profile, the compass 
displays GPS heading, not magnetic 
heading.
Calibrating the Compass
notice
Calibrate the electronic compass 
outdoors. To improve heading 
accuracy, do not stand near objects that 
influence magnetic fields, such as cars, 
buildings, or overhead power lines.
