Heading can be derived using the magnetometers of an additional external Advanced Navigation product to
input external magnetometer values.
The 2D, 3D or automatic magnetic calibration of Certus cannot be used to calibrate the external magnetometer
values. External magnetometers need to be calibrated before feeding into Certus.
To use External Magnetic Heading, disable Magnetic Heading Enabled and Automatic Magnetic Calibration
Enabled options in the
