[DG] [DG11]Distance ais 700 and fluxgate compass

[toniocask]

Hallo everybody,
I'm to decide where located my new ais and I find a safe place near the
S2 smartpilot, before to fix it, I have noted that the fluxgate compass is at 60-70c centimetres from the place I will install the ais.
I have read that from compasses the minimum tollerate distance is 1
meter. It is valid also for the fluxgate compass?
Many thanks
Antonio.

Hi Antonio
Thank you for your enquiry,

Generally the compass must be 1m from any source of deviating equipment. This link accessed here gives more information regarding compass safe distances, also please check this FAQ found here .
