Compass
The VG5 AutoDome allows a user to display the compass heading of the camera in the lower-
right corner of the image display. The AutoDome displays the The cardinal or intercardinal (N,
NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW) heading in which the camera is pointing.
You must first calibrate the AutoDome to North before the camera displays accurate compass
headings. The AutoDome uses this calibration, usually set to magnetic North, as the zero
degree pan position and as the North compass heading. The AutoDome then displays the
compass heading based on the number of degrees from the North calibration point.
To set the North calibration point:
1. Determine the North compass heading, then move the camera to that position.
2. Click the Set North Compass Point button to set the calibration point.
3. Click the On radio button for the Compass parameter.

NOTICE!
The compass feature is not compatible with Bosch Intelligent Tracking. If Intelligent Tracking
is activated, the camera automatically disables the display of the compass heading. Once
Intelligent Tracking is deactivated, the camera returns the compass heading to the display.
