Frequently asked questions

How do I calibrate the HMR3400 digital compass?

Rotate the device a full 360° on a level surface to expose the XY sensors to all headings, then run the built‑in calibration program; the resulting offset values should be less than +200 ADC counts.

What UART baud rates can be set for the HMR3400?

The module supports four baud rates: 2400, 4800, 9600, and 19200. The default factory setting is 19200.

How can I start and stop continuous data output?

Send the “+S” command; each transmission toggles the data stream between start and stop modes.

What is the operating temperature range of the HMR3400?

The device operates from –40 °C up to +85 °C.
