Step 

Description 

• Select the geometry on witch you want to attach the sensor,
• Show the Modify panel then select the Devices sub-panel.

 

 

• Click on Choose Device icon to open the list of plugins that may be attached to this geometry,
• Choose Absolute Compass.

Mount As: represents the name of the device in the simulation. 

 

Double-click on the sensor's reference in order to display/change its settings:

This dialog box lets you change how the sensor works. Also, the 'Instance' panel let you assign configuration for this sensor instance.

Intrinsic error:
The intrinsic error is the sensor absolute error. This error is randomized at device's startup, in the specified range, and is always added to the final measure.

Resolution:
Resolution of the final measure.

Measure noise:
The measure noise is randomized, in the specified range, and added at each sensor measure.
 

 

In MODA programming, use the DeviceAbsolutCompass class.
