-(2*) For example, if the calibration was performed over ±10° of tilt, then the TCM would provide <2° rms accuracy over ±20° of tilt.
+(1*) Specifications are subject to change. Assumes the TCM is motionless and the local magnetic field is clean relative to the calibration. \\
+(2*) For example, if the calibration was performed over ±10° of tilt, then the TCM would provide <2° rms accuracy over ±20° of tilt.\\
 (3*) Performance at maximum operational dip angle will be somewhat degraded.
