Ray Marine ST7001 heading way out

[BVasily]

The heading on my ST7001 is almost 150 deg off from the GPS tracking and the mag compass. The heading is reflected in the chart plotter which gives a bearing at same 150 degrees off of where it should be. I assume this is a Ray Marine compass calibration issue but am unsure how to reset. Any advice would be appreciated.

ST7001 Owner's Handbook is here. Go to Chapter 6 and go through the commissioning process. Unless your electronic compass or something in your autopilot is shot, you should be able to get the heading pretty close. BTW, I prefer to have the system convert the magnetic heading to true (which is an option) so that comparison to the GPS heading is more straightforward.
