First check in the KopterTool

Depending on which Kopter is connected (Quadro, Hexa or Okto) the displays of the KopterTool are different in the virtual display.

Below of the virtual display is also a status indicator. Here you can determine quickly if everything is OK (green status indicator) or if there is an error (red status indicator).
Is a status indicator red another button appears next to it "Details..." . One "click" on the button tells you more about the possible error.
It should be your target to have all indicators on green.

The displays for a QuadroKopter should be in that way as shown in the examples under: View QuadroKopter.

If you have a HexaKopter or OktoKopter connected it should be in that way as shown in the examples under: View of HexaKopter or OktoKopter.

View QuadroKopter

The FlightCtrl has as a standard mixer the "Quadro" set up. If you have now a QuadroKopter connected the display in the KopterTool should be in that way:

Only FlightCtrl on the QuadroKopter:
All Status displays are on green = ALL is OK.

FlightCtrl + GPS-System on the QuadroKopter:
Red Status display shows us that something is not OK.
Here now and depending on the used NaviCtrl a bad compass value or a Magnet error will be displayed.

Getting the information Magnet error you should click on the button Details....
If here is as an error a missing compass calibration indicated you must, as well as with a bad compass value, calibrate the compass.

Just only calibrate the compass, an error is not indicated.
Before the compass is calibrated, however, a few other settings are required.
How that works is written in a different Step further down the road.

With each new NaviCtrl V2.0 (or MK3Mag) the compass is still not calibrated. For that reason an error message with a red status display is shown.

Everything OK so far? Then it continues here:

View HexaKopter or OktoKopter

If a HexaKopter or OktoKopter is connected the actual set up standard mixer "Quadro" shows you the first 4 BL-Ctrl's but not the other ones.
The display in the KopterTool looks in that way:

Only FlightCtrl on the Hexa- or OktoKopter:
For that reason that the default "Quadro"-Mixer just only displays the first 4 BL-Ctrl and not the remaining BL-Ctrl's of the Hexa- or OktoKopter,
a Mixer Error is shown. If the right mixer for the Hexa or Okto is choosen everything is OK again.

FlightCtrl + GPS-System on the Hexa- or OktoKopter:
Also here shows the default "Quadro"-Mixer just only the first 4 BL-Ctrl's and not the remaining BL-Ctrl's of the Hexa- or OktoKopter.
If the right mixer for the Hexa or Okto is choosen everything is OK again.
How that will be done is described in a later Step.

With each new NaviCtrl V2.0 (or MK3Mag) the compass is still not calibrated. An error message in form of a red status indicator is displayed.
After the right set up of the mixer the nissing compass calibration will be shown.
How that will be done is described in a later Step.

Everything OK? Then it continues here:
