      Intro for Using MDC Tool for Magnetic Calibration of OS3D-FG

      Posted by Will Dillingham on Aug 19, 2020 1:35:05 PM

      Last Updated: January 28, 2020

      Purpose: To summarize in simple steps the process to setup up the MDC tool to be used for calibrating for magnetic field interference with the OS3D-FG.


      Step 1. First, you should set the COM port number to which your OS3D-FG sensor is connected to by modifying the file: inertiallabs_sdk_lite.ini located in the SDK folder inside the included flash drive (IL_SDK → inertiallabs_sdk_lite.ini). For that, simply open it in a text editor and specify the COM port number in line #15.
      Then, save the file and close it.

      Purpose: The purpose of this support article is to help the user configure the AHRS to read magnetic heading.Last Updated: November 2019

      Customer:

      ”Hi I have one of your AHRS devices that I am configuring for a down hole measurement instrument. I want to set it up to measure the magnetic heading. I understand that to do this I want to set the declination angle to 0. What do I set the Lat Long to?
