When using Controller 5.5 with older software versions of ROVs and peripherals:

Duplicated faults every 5 seconds
Potential power tool issues
Controller versions (5.4 and below) are not supported with newer ROV versions (G3 5.0+, REV 6.0+, PIVOT 2.0+). Using Controller v5.4 and below with newer ROV versions may result in:
G3 will have random tether disconnects
No sensor pod data will be displayed
Magnetic Declination
In the case a user needs to navigate their ROV using True North instead of Magnetic North (default), they can now calibrate magnetic declination in the Compass Heading page. Once this angle is determined users can select the True North option which will update the ROV's compass.
