  • Page 352 17.9 AR200 Calibration (Linearization) To enable accurate placement of Augmented Reality (AR) flags on the camera’s video feed, the AR200’s AHRS sensors need to compensate for local magnetic fields, as well as the Earth’s magnetic fields. Calibration is achieved using an automatic linearization process. The linearization process starts automatically after your vessel has turned approximately 100°, when travelling at a speed of between 3 to 15 knots.
  • Page 353 Current reading: The current heading reported by the AR200. Maximum deviation at last calibration: The maximum deviation reported during the last linearization process. Important: • If the Maximum deviation at last calibration is 45° or above, it is recommended that the AR200 unit is moved and re-installed in a location which is subject to less magnetic interference.
