Parameter | Value | ||
---|---|---|---|
Heading | Accuracy | ≤65° of tilt after full range calibration | <0.3° rms |
≤80° of tilt after full range calibration | <0.5° rms | ||
≤5° of tilt after 2D calibration | <2.0° rms | ||
≤2 times the calibration tilt angle after limited-tilt calibration (2*) | <0.2° rms | ||
Resolution | 0.1° | ||
Repeatability | 0.05° rms |
(2*) For example, if the calibration was performed over ±10° of tilt, then the TCM would provide <2° rms accuracy over ±20° of tilt.
