Magnetic balancing:
Global needle, The needle is independent of the magnetic inclination and functions at all earth magnetic field locations.
Needle design:
Red for north and black for south. The needle has a luminescent area in the north end. The markings of the needle are the same on both the upper and the lower side. The center of the needle is transparent and the damping shape of the needle is also transparent. The hub of the needle features a NdFeB ring shaped magnet.

Orienting arrow:
Red and black colored, located under rotating capsule
Declination corection:
The angle between orienting arrow and orieting lines can be adjusted to compensate for declination. The angle is adjusted by turning a sprocket using a flat screw driver delivered on the lanyard. The declination correction scale is in degrees, with a two degrees resolution and is marked with a number every 20°. The declination correction scale extends 90° E(+) and W(-)
Protractor index:
One luminescent forward bearing index at the hinge of the mirror lid and one luminexcent back-bearing index line at the opposite side of the protractor. Both lines are next to the protractor.
Mirror:
Mirror inside black protective lid. The mirror has a center line and can be tilted at äny angle above the compass.The lid encloses the protractor assembly when in the closed position in order to provide suitable protection for the compass.The lid has a V-sight on the top and a hole with a V-sight at the base. The V-sights are alligned with the center line and are luminous.The lid forms a straight line with the sides of the baseplates to form a long straight line tool for working on the map.A catch locks the mirror lid in the closed position.
