Calibrate Compass

Calibrating the compass on the Xero® A1i bow sight or Xero® X1i crossbow scope improves the accuracy of Xero Locations. For best accuracy, calibrate the compass if experiencing irregular compass behavior with Xero Locations, after traveling long distances, experiencing large temperature changes, or after changing the batteries in the unit. 

How to Calibrate the Compass on Xero Bow Sight or Crossbow Scope

Calibrating the compass can be done while mounted to the bow or crossbow. Please take care when making the appropriate movements of the device while mounted to the bow.
