Page 3: The Magnetic Field
THE MAGNETIC FIELD A magnetic field is manifested by a force affecting certain materials in its environment, acting on moving electrical charges. The magnitude of this force decreases as a function of the distance between the magnetic field emitter and its action point. Magnetization is a vector quantity which characterizes on a macroscopic scale the magnetic behaviour of a material sample. -
Page 4: Description
DESCRIPTION The HOROTEC© MAGTEST is an electronic device for the detection of magnetism in μTesla (μT), demagnetization and control of magnetic remanence of watches, movements, tools and watch parts. It combines the measurement function with the demagnetization function in a single device. -

Page 12: C Compass Mode
C. Compass mode The compass mode allows the following checks : - The north of the device corresponds to the actual magnetic north - Check the accuracy of watches equipped with a compass. Compass calibration is rarely necessary unless there is too much gap between the device and the actual magnetic north. Follow the instructions below to calibrate the compass. -
