I am posting these two issues together as perhaps they are related….
I have Penmap Version 11.1.0.1876 TPSDK 2020.2.18.20718 installed on an Android Tablet.
Galaxy Tab s5e SM- T720
- Almost every time I use the tablet with Penmap I have to recalibrate the internal compass, the internal compass works with Google Maps and Teraflex just not Penmap. When I say it does not work, I mean it does not know where I am when I start Penmap or even after I start the GNSS in Penmap, when I push the little compass icon in the upper left corner it does not center on the actual location, it could easily be 50 km away. (That is with or without Wifi.)
I have tried moving my Android in a figure 8 but never have felt the vibration that one should feel when it is complete, perhaps that is because it is not uncalibrated. Although I get a message in Penmap saying something like for a better user experience I should calibrate.
The bellow is what was recommended.
