How to open
This dialog box is opened from the Setup menu.
Description
The input from the motion sensor is of vital importance to the ME70. An unserviceable - or inaccurate - sensor will render the scientific data useless.
For this reason, monitoring the information from the motion sensor from time to time may prove useful to verify that the data
is accurate. If you suspect that the sensor provides you with erroneous data, you can disable the input.
Due to the importance of the motion sensor data, the ME70 will stop ‘pinging’ if the information from the sensor is lost. If you still wish to proceed, you can then disable the input
using the Motion Compensation dialog box. This will allow the ‘pinging’ to continue even without motion data input, but you are now aware of the situation
