Úprava deklinace

The Brunton Truarc15 Compass features tool-less declination adjustment. Declination is the angular difference between magnetic north (where your compass needle points) and true north (the direction of the North Pole). To adjust declination:

1. Determine the local magnetic declination for your area. This information can be found on topographic maps or online resources.
2. Locate the declination adjustment mechanism on your compass.
3. Rotate the adjustment until the declination scale aligns with the correct value for your location. This compensates for the difference, allowing you to read true north directly.

Proper declination adjustment is crucial for accurate navigation, especially when using maps.

3. Following a Bearing:
   • Set the desired bearing on your compass housing.
   • Hold the compass level and in front of you, with the direction-of-travel arrow pointing straight ahead.
   • Rotate your body until the red end of the magnetic needle aligns with the orienting arrow inside the housing.
   • Walk in the direction indicated by the direction-of-travel arrow.

Using the Clinometer

The built-in clinometer allows you to measure angles of slope or inclination. To use it:

1. Hold the compass on its side, aligning the base plate with the slope you wish to measure.
2. Observe the clinometer needle and read the angle indicated on the clinometer scale.
