hello Captains,

I have everybody lit and working on a bench, on my G3X system, except for GMU 22 he does not calibrate, any clues? it starts ok, maintan position.... and when it asks to turn slowly, it never ends............................................

thanks a lot, and by the way, I would like to thank everybody that already help me through my doubts, it is saving a lot of time on my project
 
Just a guess, but are you turning your entire bench? I would guess it uses the ADHR gryro sensors to notice how far you are turning. I think this calibration is only supposed to be done on the aircraft, not on the bench, as it needs to see what magnetic field looks like with the plane's interference.
 
Hello Guilherme,

Bill's reply above is correct. Additionally, the purpose of the magnetometer calibration procedure is to account for the magnetic fields of the aircraft, so it would not be productive to attempt to perform this procedure in any way other than the method specified in the installation manual.
