44、se specified, all tests required by this specification should be made with a horizontal field strength of approximately 0.18 gauss and a vertical field strength of approximately 0.54 gauss in the direction normal in the northern hemisphere.

A unit containing a synchro of known calibration mounted in an accurate positioning device and a null reading meter, or their equivalents, should be electrically connected to the data transmitter for accurate determination of c
49、ompass heading. These readings should be recorded for each position of the magnetic transmitter. The test should be repeated for each successive 15 heading, from 0, with a counterclockwise rotation of the magnetic transmitter. The deviation, thus determined, should be added algebraically and the result divided by the number of readings. This result should be the index error and should not exceed plus or minus 1/4. The individual reading should not differ from the correct heading, less the index error by more than 0.5. The differenc
